Hardcover. Fourth Edition. 112 p. Occasional footnotes. This work was originally issued under the title of "Russia and the Approach of Armageddon", and was updated from time to time in subsequent editions. The title was changed and an epilogue added when it became obvious that the Armageddon had arrived, and this is the fourth edition under the new title. Because liberty and freedom and democracy all over the world depend greatly on Russian aid and Russian strength, it is imperative that we in America have a better understanding of Russia, her people and their new political-social-economic system. It is also quite necessary that we discard our fear of an extension of that system, because we cannot be friendly toward, or cooperate fully with, Russia until we know at least enough about her system to realize that it presents no danger to us. For these reasons it was hoped that this book provided satisfactory answers to the most usual questions raised about Russia, and her new system The opinions and assertions contained in this book are the private ones of the writer and were not to be construed as official or reflecting the views of the Navy Department or the naval service at large.

Military rites were conducted by American Legion Post 156 and V.F.W. Post 2217 of Orange. Comdr. Seely was born June 16, 1892 at St. Just, son of the late Joseph and Sallie Hillman Seely.

Hardcover. Second Edition. 206 p. 20 cm. This second edition was made necessary principally because many of the predictions contained in the first edition had come true, and were now accomplished facts. In addition to changes in verb tense, there were also changes made to clarify the subject and to bring the work up to date. A significant portion of the predictions concerning Poland, on pages 125-127 had not been changed. The author interviewed more than two thousand while completing a world tour in 1937 during which he visited more than 200 cities. The author stated that he had never attended a Commuhist, Socialist, Fascist, or Nazi meeting, nor had he read a single line of the standard works on those subjects, in an attempt to write from a viewpoint of a totally unbiased observer. Whle not predicting a surprise attack at Pearl Harbot, Seely opined that we could not hope to defeat Japan quickly and that the first thing that would happen after war commenced would be a crushing defeat of our militry forced in the Far East and that our Asiatic Fleet would be sunk, captured, or otherwise put out of action almost immediately. He then predicted that the Japanese would take over all our possessions in the Far East, including the Philippines and Guam (p. 161). While he was reluctant for the United States to confront Japan he did believe that the United States, without Allied help, could 'probably' defeat Japan but that the logistical challenges would be great.
