A first edition, first printing of 'WAR' published by Martin Secker in 1929. A very good book with some spotting to the spine tips. In the very good unclipped wrapper with tiny chips to the spine tips and corners - not price clipped showing 7s 6d. Some browning to the spine. A stark and realistic novel based on Renn's experiences as a German officer during the First World War. First published in 1928, it presents the brutality and monotony of trench warfare without romanticism or heroism. Written in a plain, direct style, the book emphasises the shared suffering of soldiers and critiques the senselessness of war, making it one of the most powerful anti-war novels of its time.
