"A Jewish journalist recounts his impressions of ten Germans whom he came to know while masquerading as a gentile in a German village immediately following World War II. Concludes that these 'typical' Germans thought of themselves as good and decent people even though they had cooperated with the Nazi regime and felt they had done nothing wrong." - Paul Madden on page 415 of 'Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Epoch'. "The ten former Nazis were each of them a most marvelous mixture of good and bad impulses their lives a marvelous mixture of good and bad acts. I liked them. I couldn't help it. Again and again as I sat or walked with one or another of my ten friends I was overcome by the same sensation that had got in the way of my newspaper reporting in Chicago years before. I liked Al Capone. I liked the way he treated his mother. He treated her better than I treated mine." - pages viii-ix. xii 346 p. Former library copy with relatively few associated markings.

Carta nautica della parte occidentale del Mediterraneo, che comprende la penisola. Opera tratta da: Nieuwe Groote Zee-Spiegel, Inhoudende het Straets-Boeck Ofte de Vertooninge en de Beschrijvinge Der Middelantsche Zee, In verscheyde Zee-Karten en Opdoeningen van Landen, etc. Gesneden gedruckt en uytgegeven t’ Amsterdam. By Pieter Goos, op ‘t Water, in de Vergulde Zee-Spiegel, by de Nieuwe-brugh. Anno 1662.L’attività editoriale di Pieter Goos (1616 - 1675) si sviluppa dopo aver acquistato le lastre di rame delle carte nautiche che Anthonie Jacobsz Lootsman fa incidere per il suo De Lichtende Columne ofte Zeespiegel. Goos ristampa ed aggiorna l’atlante del Lootsman, pubblicando sue edizioni di questo lavoro in varie lingue, e aggiungendo nuove mappe. Il suo motto editoriale era “Op ‘t Water, in de vergulde Zeespiegel” (sull’acqua, nello specchio dorato del mare). Con l’indirizzo “Op ‘t Water” Goos stampa la sua prima versione del Lichtende Columne ofte Zee-Spiegel nel 1650; opera che aggiorna con un numero sempre crescente di carte nautiche. Nel 1662 viene alla luce la terza parte dello Zee-Spiegel, il cosiddetto Straets-Boek del Mediterrano, una raccolta di 25 tavole nautiche stampata con testo in olandese. L’atlante nautico del Mediterraneo di Goos ispirò il capitano genovese Francesco Maria Levanto, che nel 1664 tradusse il testo e fece incidere le 25 tavole nautiche per la Prima Parte dello Specchio del Mare, stampato a Genova da Gerolamo Marino e Benedetto Celle. La raccolta di Goos fu poi tradotta per i mercati inglese e francese, pubblicati entrambi nel 1669: il Lighting Colom Of the Midland-Sea e la Troisieme Partie Du Grand et Noveau Miroir ou Flambeau de la Mer. Incisione in rame, coloritura coeva dei contorni, lievi abrasioni e ossidazioni, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione.Bibliografia: C.

From: Nieuwe Groote Zee-Spiegel, Inhoudende het Straets-Boeck Ofte de Vertooninge en de Beschrijvinge Der Middelantsche Zee, In verscheyde Zee-Karten en Opdoeningen van Landen, etc. Gesneden gedruckt en uytgegeven t’ Amsterdam. By Pieter Goos, op ‘t Water, in de Vergulde Zee-Spiegel, by de Nieuwe-brugh. Anno 1662.Like Colom, Doncker and Jacobsz, he published a sea atlas, the Zee-Spiegel, deriving his work from the plates he was given by Jacobsz. The atlas has been then reissued in different editions and languages, and it was very famous among its contemporaries. Apart from publishing his Zee-Spiegel in the classical part I and II (Europe and Atlantic Coasts) and III (Mediterranean), he started a new tradition, publishing also parts IV and V, depicting routes for West Indies and West Africa.
