Original blue cloth silver titles. A military novella clearly intended to mirror World War II and the occupation by the Nazis although in this story the occupying nation remains unnamed. It was written to encourage resistance among the oppressed. The Moon Is Down a novel by John Steinbeck fashioned for adaptation for the theatre and for which Steinbeck received the Norwegian King Haakon VII Freedom Cross was published by Viking Press in March 1942. The story tells of the military occupation of a small town in Northern Europe by the army of an unnamed nation at war with England and Russia much like the occupation of Norway by the Germans during World War II. A French language translation of the book was published illegally in Nazi-occupied France by Les Editions de Minuit a French Resistance publishing house.
