This copy belonged originally to the prisoners' library 'Lagerbucherei' at Dachau. Now almost forgotten this unlikely library was installed in Barracks 10 along with the infirmary and a sort of canteen. It was conceived as early as October 1933 by an imprisoned publisher Heinrich Bergmann who somehow obtained permission from the commandant Theodor Eicke to set up a lending-library for 'privileged' prisoners. For his part Eicke supplied some books predictable Nazi fare including presumably the present volume. To these were added some tractates and Jesuit relations seconded from a nearby Roman Catholic library and later literature history geography polonica &c from various sources. Perhaps the library appealed to Eicke's sense of Dachau as a 'model' camp or perhaps it was just a bit of practical penology controlling the many by meting out 'privileges' to the few. In any case the prisoners' library became a center of subversive activity within the camp particularly under its later librarians Kurt Schumacher and Viktor Matejka and by 1945 the library held some 15000 volumes: Some of these were carted off into the old town of Dachau where a former prisoner named Albert Zeitler set up a small lending-library in Augsburgerstrasse and the rest were simply scattered among surviving prisoners or mostly lost. Today these books are so rare on the market that the leading historian of concentration-camp libraries has never heard of one. Munich: Verlag Franz Eher Nachfolger GmbH, 1933 hardcover
231, [1] pages. 9.2" x 6.3". Waton (1871-1959) was a Jewish philosopher keenly interested in the works of Marx and Spinoza. In the Foreword, dated 1939, he states "I convinced myself that human society is irresistibly and inevitably moving towards state capitalism and fascism. Further reflection also convinced me that this social transformation would inevitably bring upon the Jews great suffering. How could the Jews face this world situation? This question occupied my mind for the last twelve years. At last I reached the conclusion which I embodied in a program for the Jews. When the Jews declared war against Nazi Germany and fascism (in 1933), I saw that as a suicidal policy. Thus passed more than five years of ever-increasing suffering for the Jews. When the situation became so grave that the Jews themselves began to realize the gravity of the situation, the Spinoza Institute of America asked me to formulate my program." On page 199 he adds "We have to face the fact that the Leader of the German people has no doubt in his mind that the Jewish problem is the centre of all problems, not merely in Germany, but in the world. It is useless to dismiss this as an illusion, because if it is, it demands explanation. But it is no illusion." Brilliant gilt lettering upon front board. Light external wear. Binding tight. Faint patches of soiling to boards. Occasional light pencil marginalia and underlining until page 21. Moderate age-toning to contents. It is left to readers to ponder the impact Waton's program could have had upon twentieth-century history. Book

With the appearance of this volume Hitler's censorship ends and the work which Dorothy Thompson calls 'Hitler's blueprint of world conquest' is at last available to readers everywhere." - dust jacket not included. "This Stackpole edition was translated and printed between December 1938 and February 1939. Houghton Mifflin which believed Stackpole to be violating its copyright sought and obtained an injunction against Stackpole on 9 June 1939. By that time only 12000 copies of the Stackpole edition had been sold. It remains a rare and valuable artifact." - Wikipedia.

réf. 72826E-140. Very Good. Paperback. Trade PB. 8vo. Published by Reginald Glossop London UK. 1932. 227 pgs. Issued in illustrated stiff-paper wrappers. Wrappers lightly worn with some light shelf-wear to the extremities present. Book is free of ownership marks. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Lengthy inscription on half title addressed to "Reich Kanzler Hitler with with compliments of the author." Book includes laid in note on the letterhead of Richard W. Van Wagenen 1923-2003 a former dean of American University's graduate school who retired in 1977 as a World Bank education and training specialist. Note reads: "Liberated from the shelves of a sort of library-closet in Hitler's Chancellory sic in Berlin late July 1945. R. W. VW." Uncommon in its own right this future war novel involving a tunnel under the British Channel would have been very much in keeping with the Aryan ideological model espoused by the Nazi Party. The note suggests the book was taken when the Chancellery was stormed by Allied forces in April 1945 during which time GIs took what souvenirs they could from the Fuhrer's domain. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall . paperback

He collaborated with other prominent figures in economics to form the Young Plan to modify the way that war reparations were paid after Germany's economy was destabilizing under the Dawes Plan. Though on March 7, 1930, six months after the beginning of the Great Depression, he stepped down from the position of Reichsbank Chairman, but returned on March 17, 1933 after Hitler's rise to power." - from wikipedia dot org.

416 pages. Exhaustive bibliography. Footnotes. "Re-examines the record, in order better to appreciate the past and present problems of Europe, political and economic. The career of Hjalmar Schacht happens to be an excellent mirror for those problems: why democracy fell in Germany (as it had in much of the world); why the unspeakable Nazi came to despotic power over one of the most cultured and civilized nations of the world; whether dictatorships are better qualified to deal with the complexities of industrial life; why foreign trade in the post-war world departed so far from the cherished principles of the nineteenth century; how and why war came to Europe and the world in 1939; how the citizen can react to the modern police state; what can be done to remove a modern dictator or whether it is possible at all; whether one major trend of the modern world, class struggle, can be replaced by the other, nationalism; whether 'strong-man-rule' is the proper solution to the 'Bolshevik Danger'; what action can be taken to curb the dominant trend in the economy toward inflation; how should peace-loving powers treat a fanatical dictator - with force or with conciliation. It is a study of these basic problems of modern civilization rather than merely as the study of an individual who sought and obtained world-wide fame that this work was attempted." - Foreword.

1939réf. 222j3127Berlin Germany: M. Muller & Sohn K.G. Good No dust jacket as issued. First English Edition. Pamphlet. "Members of the Reichstag! When six years ago on this evening tens of thousands of National Socialist fighters marched through the Brandenburg Gate to the light of their torches to express to me their feeling of overwhelming joy and their vows as faithful followers countless anxious eyes all over Germany gazed upon the the beginning of a development the end of which still seemed unknown and unpredictable. I received only a little over a third of all votes cast. The other twenty million were scattered among about 35 other parties. The only thing that united them was their common hatred of our young movement. This united the priests of the Centre Party and Communist atheists the Socialists out to abolish private property capitalists and conservatives. During the long battle of National Socialism for the leadership of the country they had all come together in defence of their interests and had made common cause with Jewry. The complete picture of the extent of the collapse in that period is gradually fading away. It seemed that only a miracle could save Germany. To the Jews and the other enemies of the State however it appeared to be the last flicker of the national power of resistance. They felt that when it had disappeared then they would be able to destroy not only Germany but all Europe as well." - paraphrased from pages 3-4. "During the time of my struggle for power it was in the first instance the Jewish race which only received my prophecies with laughter when I said that I would one day take over the leadership of the State and that I would then among other things settle the Jewish problem. Today I will once more be a prophet: If the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war then the result will not be the bolshevization of the earth and thus the victory of Jewry but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!" - page 42.

5704 (1944). Original blank paper wrappers. 8vo. 64 pages. 21 cm. Reprinted in early 1944 for Jewish refugees in Switzerland with some additional notations. In Hebrew and German in parallel columns (with diacritic vowel marks under the Hebrew, and with Yiddish translation between Hebrew). Original 1938 title page, with verso 1944 German title page: Den jüdischen Flüchtlingen in der Schweiz; Zur Feier des [Pesakh]-Festes im Jahre 5704; überreicht vom Schweizerischen Israelitischen Gemeindebund. (For the Jewish Refugees in Switzerland; For the celebration of Pesakh in the year 5704; presented by the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities). Copyright by Lehrberger & Co. of Frankfurt. A European-published hagada from the darkest period of the Holocaust, produced specifically for those feeling the inferno. During 1943 and 1944, the extermination camps were working at a furious rate to kill the hundreds of thousands of people shipped to them by rail from almost every country within the German sphere of influence, and by the spring of 1944, up to 8,000 people were being gassed every day at Auschwitz (USHMM, 2012). Passover 1944 began on April 8, the day that the roundups of the Jews of Carpatho-Ruthenia and northern Hungary started. On April 14, the last day of the Holiday, László Endre & László Baky (German-installed heads of the Ministry of the Interior) and Eichmann made the official decision to deport all the Jews of Hungary. With ten illustrations; an early 19th century German Orthodox Haggadah originally compiled by Wolf Heidenheim in 1822. Published for German-Jewish refugees in Switzerland under the auspices of the Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities, founded in 1904 to help protect the general interest of Jews in Switzerland; during the second world war, the Federation helped support the refugee community in Switzerland: Prior to and during the Second World War, Switzerland gave refuge to about 23,000 Jewish refugees although the government decided that Switzerland would serve only as a country of transit. These Jews were protected during the Holocaust due to Swiss neutrality. The Jewish refugees, however, did not receive the financial support from the government that non-Jewish refugees received. Many more Jews were prevented from entering, effectively shutting the border. (Jewish Virtual Library; Switzerland).

1937réf. 374289Boston: Houghton Mifflin 1937. Second American Edition. 297pp. frontispiece. 1 vols. 8vo. Light brown cloth with title printed in red on front cover and spine. Fine in publisher's lightly chipped dust jacket with minor wear. Second American Edition. 297pp. frontispiece. 1 vols. 8vo. A scarce second American edition of Hitler's autobiography and political manifesto in one of the best examples we've seen of the rare dust jacket that elicited an official protest from the German government. Despite condemnation of its first American edition from Jewish American groups Houghton Mifflin risked the publication of a second edition lowering the retail price from $3.00 to $2.50 and issuing a newly designed dust jacket. The dust jacket is illustrated with the color scheme of the Weimar Republic and includes a provocative quote from journalist Dorothy Thompson. The design drew a swift formal protest from the German government who demanded that it be replaced by a dust jacket approved by the original German publisher Eher Verlag. Houghton Mifflin refused the request. American journalist and radio broadcaster Dorothy Thompson was the first American journalist expelled from Nazi Germany in 1934 for her depcition of Hitler in her book I Saw Hitler! 1932 Farrar and Rinehart. Her expulsion order was hand delivered by a Gestapo agent and gave her 24 hours to leave the country. Her quote on the back of the dust jacket reads in part: "As a liberal democrat I deprecate every idea in this book. But it is not the function of liberals and democrats to live in a world of illusions." In 1939 Reynal & Hitchcock published the unabridged edition but by then the rest of the world was already at war. Houghton Mifflin unknown
