xii, 300 pages. Appendices, footnotes, bibliography. Profusely illustrated with black and white reproductions of archival photos, documents and maps.

Also covers rival movements and iimportant personalities, along with an extensive list of sources. Provides the most extensive account of the campaigns of the Legion Wallonie and its successor SS-Sturmbrigade/Division Wallonien (28th SS Freiw.-Gren. Division) published in English.

Thorpe, T.E.
A Yachtsman's Guide to the Dutch Waterways Including the Zuider Zee and the Friesland Meres
xiii, 158 pp. Index. 25 x 16cm. Numerous small maps in text. Fold-out maps of Amsterdam and Rotterdam Harbour. Back pocket contains a 74 x 76cm two-colour map, in very good condition, entitled Dutch Waterways which indicates 24 rivers and 265 canals. "The following notes, made at various times in view of, and in the course of, successive yachting trips to Holland during the last ten years, are put together for publication in the hope that they may prove useful to those who may contemplate similar excursions. Probably no part of Europe affords ampler opportunities of enjoyment to the yachtsman who seeks to combine the charm and freshness of foreign travel with the quiet pleasure that springs from navigating his own vessel. Holland, indeed, is best seen and studied from its waterways." - Introduction. Somewhat above-average wear to publisher's dark blue cloth lettered in gilt. Back hinge starting. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. Narrow opening in binding at page 48. A worthy vintage copy. Book

World in Trance - From Versailles to Pearl Harbor
pp. 445. Index. Footnotes. "A documented authoritative history of Germany's war against the world in the years 1918 to 1939 as part of a Thirty Years War; and of the failure of the allies to recognize and stay united against this undeclared but continuing assault. Reveals the German expansionist and militarist policies which were carried on by all the governments of Germany and which waged a successful war against the western powers by splitting them up and utilizing well-meaning but misinformed support from western liberals and utopians. Includes complete documentation from memoirs and state papers. A MUST book for everyone who wants to be well informed on world affairs and particularly for all those who are giving thought to the many problems that will have to be faced when Germany and its axis allies are finally defeated." - dust jacket. Second printing of the 1942 first English edition. Average wear to unmarked book. Hairline opening to back hinge. Average wear to price-clipped dust jacket now preserved in Brodart.

Schacht, Hjalmar; Stern-Rubarth, Edgar [Translator]
Gold For Europe - Hjalmar Schacht's New Plan for the European Financial Rehabilitation
"Everyone who is concerned with international finance listens when Schacht speaks. His new plan, designed to restore Europe's economic well-being, is an ingenious, essentially uncomplicated idea which has already affected official plans for dealing with Europe's [post WWII] exchange problems. For the rest of his life Dr. Schacht will remain a controversial figure on account of the political role he played in Germany from 1930 onwards; but as a financial and banking expert - as friend and collaborator of Montague Norman, and many other experts in this field - he has had hardly an equal in our time." - dust jacket. 125, [1] pp. First English printing of the 1949 German first edition. Original light yellow cloth lettered in red is very well preserved. Binding tight. Former library copy but with only two markings: a stamp inside the front board and a stamp upon the copyright page. Modest lean to spine. Average wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy of this daring proposal. Peterson p.367 Book

Helfferich, Dr. Karl
Germany's Case in the Supreme Court of Civilization: The Dual Alliance vs. The Triple Entents
[4]-46 pp. "The governments of England, Russia, and France thought through the publication of the exchange of diplomatic writings of the days before the beginning of [WWI], they could furnish a proof in the eyes of their own peoples and of the entire civilized world that the blame for the most gigantic shedding of blood which the world has ever experienced falls only upon 'war-lusting Germany,' and that they for their part did all in their power to avoid the catastrophe. England has published a 'Blue Book,' Russia an 'Orange Book,' and France a 'Yellow Book.'" - p.5. "Dr. Karl Helfferich, German Secretary of the Treasury, reviews the 'White,' 'Yellow,' and 'Orange' papers, and reaches a different conclusion from that of James M. Beck [author of the 1914 book 'The Evidence in the Case'], holding the Allies responsible for [WWI]". - front cover. "A translation from the semi-official Nord-deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung of Jan. 26 [1914] of an exhaustive comparative study of the diplomatic documents published by the various warring countries concerning the origin of the world war." - p. [3]. "Dr. Helfferich's brilliant analysis of the world situation was published first by George Stilke, Berlin, under the title of 'The Genesis of the Great War.' It appeared in the N.Y. Times under the title under which it is here reprinted." - p. [2]. George Sylvester Viereck's The Fatherland Corporation also published a WWI-era periodical called The Fatherland which endorsed "Fair Play for Germany and Austria-Hungary". Grey card covers fragile with chips from front and back tips. Cover fold mostly open. Contents printed upon glossy stock which is clean, unmarked and gently toned. A worthy copy of this important WWI document. Book
