Illustrated dust jacket. , Jan Valtin was the alias of Richard Julius Hermann Krebs (1905 - 1951), a German writer during the interwar period. He settled to the United States in 1938, and in 1940 (as Valtin) wrote his bestselling book Out of the Night, his highly publicized autobiography. In the book he described in detail the actions he supposedly had carried on as a secret agent of the Soviet GPU. A 1926 attempted murder was described by Krebs/Valtin as a GPU operation. The book received great critical acclaim. A 1940 review for the Saturday Review of Literature reads: "No other books more clearly reveals the aid which Stalin gave to Hitler before he won power". As a result, he Valtin/Krebs was invited to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee as regards Soviet secret activities in Europe., Size : 8vo (238x153mm).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First published in 1941, this is a first edition of this new expanded edition with Foreword and Postscript, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely black jacket and spine, corners very slightly bruised, very slight backwards lean, not price clipped (no published price), no inscriptions, internally clean and tight, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 692pp. A largely autobiographical novel. The son of a seafaring father, Richard Julius Herman Krebs a.k.a. Jan Valtin (1905-51), came of age as a bicycle messenger during a maritime rebellion. His life as an intimate insider account of the dramatic events of 1920s and 1930s, where he rose both within the ranks of the Communist Party and on the Gestapo hit list. Known for his honesty and incredible memory, Krebs dedicated his life to the Communist Party, rising to a position as head of maritime, organizing worldwide for the Comintern, only to flee the Party and Europe to evade his own comrade's attempts to kill him. As a professional revolutionary, agitator, spy and would be assassin, Krebs traveled the globe from Germany to China, India to Sierra Leon, Moscow to the United States where a botched assassination attempt landed him a stint in San Quentin. From his spellbinding account of artful deception to gain release from a Nazi prison and his work as a double agent within the Gestapo, to his vivid depiction of a Communist Party fraught with intrigue and subterfuge, Krebs gives an unflinching portrayal of the internal machinations of both parties.
