The first English edition (first printing). 8vo. 364pp. Brown rough-weave cloth lettered in black at the spine and upper board. A W.H.Smith lending library copy, with a bookplate to that effect to the front pastedown and with a second non-specific plate pasted on top. Cloth lightly marked in places. The front free endpaper missing and the rear hinge cracked. Some light occasional marginal spotting. Quite a bright copy, lacking the uncommon dust wrapper. The pseudonymous first novel of Arnold F.V.von Golssenau. "The author is believed to be an ex-officer of the old army who has joined the Communist party. The book poses most successfully as the work of an N.C.O. [it] contains the reminiscences and reflections of a simple man who did his duty. It has been rather extravagantly praised as the only book that tells the whole truth about the War" - J.Knight Bostock, 'Some Well-known German War Novels.. Book. Book Condition: Good.
