    OK! Book question for you all. We have a leak into our living room ceiling from a bathroom upstairs. I have spent the day dismantling a tall bookcase loaded with books that is, of course, right under the part of the ceiling that needs to be opened. I'm making piles to donate or bring to my classroom, and finding some treasures.

    So what do you all think of this one? I bought it at a library sale. It's John F. Kennedy's Profiles in Courage, but what's neat about it is that it was discarded from the Choate Rosemary Hall library, where he attended prep school. In the front there are two bookplates, one from the school's library and another that says "John F. Kennedy, Choate 1935, President of the United States 1961-1963." AND, it is a stated first edition. However, there is a small coffee stain at the bottom. Think it has any value?
