First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First UK Edition. A first impression of the first UK edition, published in 1947 - the book was first published in English translation by G. P. Putnam's in the USA in 1946. As stated on the title page, the author was Chancellor of Austria and Prisoner of Hitler. ***Near fine in blue cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The boards are beautifully clean and unmarked, having been protected by the dustwrapper over the last 78 years. The gilt is still beautifully bright. The binding is square and tight, with no reading lean and no sign of any splitting to the fragile cloth, or to the hinges. There is no creasing to the fragile spine, just slight creasing at the bottom of the back board near the spine. Corners sharp. Page block edges clean with just the top edge lightly foxed. Internally also near fine, with a contemporary ownership name in ink on the front free endpaper: 'Ex Libris, John Godwin, Graz, 20.XII.47', and a later inscription in ink also on the front free endpaper: 'To R.C.W. from D.C.W. Aug. 1951'. There is also a rubbed out pencil price on the front free endpaper (please see scans). There are no annotations within the book. Unusually, there is none of the usual offsetting to the endpapers, and virtually no internal foxing. Pages clean. ***In a very good printed dustwrapper, which is priced at 7/6 net on the spine. The dustwrapper is virtually complete, with just slight loss at the top and tail of the spine, and some general rubbing and wear to the edges (as to be expected, as Gollancz used very thin dustwrappers, which is why so few remain). There is also some scuffing and residue on the thin paper surface of the back panel, where a sticker has been removed (please see scans). Despite these faults, the dustwrapper still presents well. ***190mm x 127mm. 270 pages including a detailed Index at the back of the book. ***Contents: Preface, Book I. Death-Throes of Austria - Ch I. The Meeting at Berchtesgaden; II. The Four Weeks' Agony; III. The Anschluss; IV. Arrest. Book II. Austria, Keystone of Europe - V. Our Good Neighbour Hungary; VI.

Although Schuschnigg considered Austria a "German state" and Austrians to be Germans, he was strongly opposed to Adolf Hitler's goal to absorb Austria into the Third Reich and wished for it to remain independent. When Schuschnigg's efforts to keep Austria independent had failed, he resigned his office. After the Anschluss he was arrested, kept in solitary confinement, and eventually interned in various concentration camps. He was liberated in 1945 by the advancing United States Army and spent most of the rest of his life in academia in the United States. Schuschnigg gained American citizenship in 1956.' (Wiki) ***A first impression of the first UK edition of this interesting work, in near fine condition with very few faults - and in the very rarely found original and complete dustwrapper. The UK edition is scarcer than the US edition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

Brief (1 S. 4 to, bläuliches Luftpostpapier mit blau geprägter Anschrift am Kopf, Unterstreichungen im Text) mit Ort, Datum, eigenhändiger Unterschrift signiert Obersasbach über Aachen, Baden, 4.IX.1955 - ausführliches historisches Schreiben an Herrn Lutz (= HERMANN LUTZ (1881?1965), deutschamerikanischer Autor, c/o Hoover Institute, Stanford, CA) über die AKTION DER BESETZUNG DES RHEINLANDES ".habe ich wie alle Sterblichen erst durch die Zeitungen erfahren. Ich halte es für ganz unwahrscheinlich, daß Hitler schon 1934 mit Hindenburg über eine solche Aktion gesprochen haben könnte. Die Voraussetzungen dieser Aktion sind ja doch erst durch die Änderung der politischen Lage - Mussolinis Angriff auf Abessinien und das Auseinanderfallen der Abmachungen der Stresa-Conferenz- eingetreten. Prf. Ritter hat völlig recht mit seinem Urteil über die Geschichtsfälschungen Hitlers in seinen Tischgesprächen. Ich kann das in fast allen Fällen nachweisen, wo er über mich gesprochen hat.Große Wahrscheinlichkeit spricht dafür, daß die Indiskretion bezüglich des Geheimbefehls an die Bataillone aus dem Kreise Beck-Canaris stammt, weil der Generalstab bestimmt mit einer Gegenaktion Frankreichs rechnen mußte und ihm eine Diskreditierung Hitlers sehr am Herzen lag."
