Hardcover. Condición: Good. First Printing [Stated]. xviii, 870, [6] pages. Illustrations. Occasional Footnotes. Source notes. Bibliography. The Gridiron Club: Membership List. Index. Inside front and back covers are stained. Mr. Brayman and graduated from Cornell University. Harold Brayman (1900-1988), former director of the Public Relations Department of Du Pont Company, retired from that position March 31, 1965. Brayman went to Du Pont in 1942 after a distinguished newspaper career of twenty years, fourteen of them spent as Washington correspondent for leading New York and other American dailies. He had headed that activity of the company for 21 years, establishing a concept of public relations which was widely emulated throughout the United States. As a specialist in reporting and analyzing political events, Brayman attended all national political conventions from 1928 through 1940. He crisscrossed the nation as a correspondent on the presidential campaign trains of Alfred E. Smith in 1928, President Roosevelt in 1932, Alfred M. Landon in 1936, and Wendell L. Wilkie in 1940. He worked as a syndicated columnist and a Washington correspondent for several newspapers. While a correspondent in Washington, Brayman was president of the National Press Club in 1938 and president of the Gridiron Club in 1941, one of the very few Washington correspondents to have been elected president of both of these organizations . He wrote four books, ''Corporation Management in a World of Politics,'' ''Developing a Philosophy for Business Action,'' ''A History of the Lincoln Club of Delaware'' and ''The President Speaks Off the Record.'' Chapter IV (pp. 47-70) covers Theodore Roosevelt, and contains excerpts of skits, speeches, and songs, including an account of the January 1906 Gridiron Club dinner at which President Roosevelt delivered his famous "muckraking" speech. This is a history of the Gridiron Club, an exclusive organization of Washington reporters. For nearly a century this club has hosted dinners at which presidents, cabinet members, party brass, and assorted political fauna have taken turns roasting each other. Harold Brayman is a former Gridiron Club president and is the only writer up to that time who had ever received permission to use the club's private records. The Gridiron Club and Foundation - founded in 1885 as The Gridiron Club of Washington, D.C. - is the oldest and one of the most prestigious journalistic organizations in Washington, D.C. Membership is by invitation only and has traditionally been offered almost exclusively to Washington newspaper bureau chiefs. Through 2018, every U.S. President since 1885 except Grover Cleveland has spoken at the dinner.

For more than 20 years, the author was the director of Public Relations for E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company, where he established a concept of public relations widely emulated in the business community. He retired from du Pont in 1965. Mr. Brayman graduated from Cornell University. He worked as a syndicated columnist and a Washington correspondent for several newspapers and was president of the National Press Club and of the Gridiron Club. He joined Du Pont in 1942 and retired in 1965. He wrote four books, ''Corporation Management in a World of Politics,'' ''Developing a Philosophy for Business Action,'' ''A History of the Lincoln Club of Delaware'' and ''The President Speaks Off the Record.'' This book was designed to help businessmen and those who advise them meet better the public and governmental problems of business. These problems, if not solved, can be extremely costly and disruptive to the progress of business. Successful business operations in the then prevalent environment required a high degree of political awareness and sensitivity of public opinion. The author, as a former Washington correspondent and as a leader of the Public Relations profession, had unusual exposure to the problems and pitfalls that the climate of the day imposed on corporate management. This book provides a snapshot in history as to what then was a practical guide through the labyrinth represented by the business-government-public relationship. It identified the dead-ends and missteps into which inept interpretations have led the unwary and suggested realistic solutions. The politics of any situation, Mr. Brayman demonstrated, were the direct result of the public opinion surrounding any enterprise. A favorable atmosphere was the result of blending enlightened action with popular understanding, a course which many leading corporations found to pay meaningful dividends. This book offered to the business and corporate manager of the time, and to their counselors in Public Affairs, the sage advice and broad experience of one who had been an observed and participant in the political arena for many years, with insights sharpened by broad business contacts. It was written with an eye to the illuminating anecdote and the personal frame of reference that clothe its serious content in the warmth of a colorful human narrative. While written more than half a century ago, its content, wisdom, perspective, and realism appear equally relevant to the current era.
