Reed, Douglas
Insanity Fair - A European Cavalcade
420 pages. Index. "As Douglas Reed, living in the Vienna he loved, was writing this book in 1937 and the early part of 1938, history seemed to be marching at its normal pace... the destruction of Austria was only a fear in the hearts of a few informed men. No sooner was the manuscript dispatched to the publisher, however, than the storm broke and the map of Europe began to change... The first forty-four chapters have been allowed to stand as they were written before Hitler's march into Austria... Fortunately, it has been possible to conclude the story of Austria in the last four chapters, which were written just after Hitler's arrival in Vienna on March 15th, when the author was forced to flee for his life to Zurich." - from Publisher's Note. Above-average external wear and soiling. Unmarked. Some yellowing to contents. Binding intact. A sound working copy. [Singerman 450] Book
