1936pp. [8], 9-283. "This strangely fascinating book divides itself into two parts: first, the autobiography and travelogue of a young girl [the daughter of a WWI German spy] who spent her childhood on the South Sea island of Nuifuti and travelled widely; and the second, a searching, personal study of the German Nazis and the Hitler regime. Miss Carl was sixteen and attending school in Munich when the Nazis came in power. She witnessed the brutal persecution of Jews and Communists. Disillusioned with the country and her work, she was only too glad to leave at the end of the school term." - dust jacket. Small patch of beige tanning atop pages 62-63 from a newsprint bookmark, otherwise pleasingly clean and tight with light wear to publisher's decorated wheat-coloured cloth. Average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A high-quality copy of this valuable account of "the influence of nationalism as mobilized by Hitler on impressionable youngsters, and the widespread resentment in Germany toward the Treaty of Versailles." - Madden p.103.

1995Volume in brossura con alette, prima edizione 1995. Curato da Daria Galateria. Volume in ottime condizioni, lievi segni del tempo (vedi foto) VOLUME ESAURITO - INTROVABILE Negli anni dorati del "roi soleil", il castello di sceaux, alle porte di parigi, sfida per magnificenza e mondanità la stessa versailles. Vi tiene corte la duchessa del maine, figlia del gran condé, ambiziosa tutrice delle fortune dinastiche del marito, nato dalla relazione di luigi xiv con madame de montespan. A sceaux vive, testimone e complice, ancella devota e osservatrice, rose delaunay, che un tardivo matrimonio di convenienza trasformerà in madame de staal. Nelle "memorie" complotti e spie, segreti, carrozze a doppio fondo, messaggi cifrati e confessioni estorte vivono come in un grande teatro del quale la delaunay regge le fila.
