HITLER AGAINST THE WORLD: THE WORLD AGAINST HITLER, THE NUREMBERG FASCIST PARTY UNMASKED
1st edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers. 8vo, 46+1 pages. Early Nazi period (1935) discussion of the 7th National Socialist Reichsparteitag [Nazi Party Day] in Nuremberg. "It is not only that the internal policies of the Hitler regime, the suppression of all labor organizations, the murderous terror against the revolutionary and progressive workers, the persecution of Jews, Catholics and Protestants, outrage the sense of fairness and justice of all victims of exploitation, of all liberty-loving people. The latest Nazi atrocity, as this pamphlet goes to press, is the beheading of Rudolph Claus for the 'crime' of acting as treasurer of an organization which attempted to provide some measure of defense to anti-fascists facing trial, and financial assistance to imprisoned victims of fascism and their familiesâ¦. The answer to the war program of the fascist incendiaries lies in the united action of the toiling masses, of all peace-loving people in this country as throughout the world. The answer to 'Hitler against the world' must be 'the world against Hitler'. This is the only way to prevent a new world war" (From the introduction, ) Subjects: National socialism. Politics and government. Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. Reichsparteitag (7th: 1935: Nuremberg, Germany) . Nurnberger Parteitag (1935) . OCLC: 23586096.

Its owner is a little fellow with a long beard, who fears God, loves his fellow-man, and is known as Little Grandpa. In his shop there are no secular books to be found but holy works written in a holy spirit in the Holy Tongue, as is fitting and proper to so worthy a Jew as he. And since by reason of our many iniquities, holy books do not provide a livelihood for their owners in our days, our good Jew, gentle Little Grandpa, must supplement his traffic in books with the sale of writing materials and even of haberdashery, may it not be reckoned as a transgression. Number 1 in a series of anthologies from the Palestine Pioneer Library. SUBJECT (S) : Palestine, Modern Hebrew Literature. OCLC lists 21 holdings worldwide. Some toning. Library marking on spine.
