The death of Jordan's King Hussein...



Item # 718017

February 08, 1999

THE READING TIMES, Reading, Pa., Feb. 8, 1999  The front page has the displayable heading: "KING HUSSEIN 1935-1999", with subheading: "Ruler's son elevated to monarch". This is followed by significant coverage of his life and death, along with the transition of leadership to his son, and includes a large photo. This death would prove to be highly impactful to the region. King Hussein had a legacy of having had a good relationship with the United States.
Also of note is the front page story: "Missing boys found" (with photo), which tells of the survival of 5 boys who were lost near a Ski resort in northern Idaho during a severe snowstorm. Its always nice to have good news amidst the bad.

Complete in 4 sections, in very nice condition.
