"Even though the fighting forces of the United States have overcome the military might of Italy Germany and Japan we have not been equally successful in defeating fhe Fascist threat here at home. We will not win lasting peace unless we solve the problem of checking disruptive propaganda." - Introduction. Hoke concerned that proceedings against alleged WWII American fascists were being stymied or kept secret decided to write this book to serve as a final report which woujld attempt to tell the whole truth. "I will not violate any of the legal rules of secrecy surrounding Grand Jury proceedings. But I insist that it is permissible to give all the names of all the people who appeared before the various Grand Juries investigating WWII-era sedition and to give too the background of the witnewsses known from long and close study. I describe what has happened to some of the witnesses who appeared before the Federal Grand Jury what they are doing now and whhat their announced plans are for the future. All of this put together should give a pattern of what the Fascists expect to do and why we should be on watch against them." - Introduction.

1932347j0317London: BUF - British Union of Fascists. Good with no dust jacket. 1932. Reprint. Hardcover. "The object of this book is to prove by analysis of the present situation and by constructive policy that the necessity for a fundamental change exists. Our political system dates substantially from 1832. The intervening century has seen the invention and development of telegraph telephone and wireless. Wise laws and wise institutions are those which harness without restricting; which allow human activity full play but guide it into channels which serve the nation's ends. Hence the need for a New Movement not only in politics but in the whole of our national life. The movement is Fascist i because it is based on a high conception of citizenship and ii because it recognises the necessity for an authoritative state." - Introduction. "Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley 6th Baronet 1896-1980 was a British politician during the 1920s and 1930s who rose to fame when having become disillusioned with mainstream politics he turned to fascism. He was a member of parliament and later founded and led the British Union of Fascists." - Wikipedia. viii 2 11-160 pp. Second printing of the 1932 first edition.

1961356j1297New York: Grove Press Inc. Good in Good dust jacket. 1961. First U.S. Edition. Hardcover. "In May 1945 an American officer in Germany confiscated the manuscript of an unpublished book ascribed to Adolf Hitler and sent it to the U.S. The book had been dictated in the summer of 1928 then placed in a safe at the Nazi party central publishing house. In the summer of 1958 it was identified beyond any question as a second book by Hitler devoted entirely to foreign policy. Nowhere else did Hitler set forth his foreign policy so frankly and fully. What emerges is an elaborate rationalization for a war policy on Germany's part and an intensive sketch of an alliance policy in preparation for war. Closes with an exposition of 'the Jewish Question' as Hitler saw it including his claim that the Jews by 'bloody Bolshevization' 'promiscuous bastardization' and 'economic conquest' would try to 'destroy the intellectual upper classes' and emerge as 'the master of a mankind become leaderless." - dust jacket. xxvi 230 pages.

18512970Philadelphia: G.S. Harris 1851. First edition. Very Good . Original blue printed paper wraps printed to front. Some chipping and creasing to edges but overall intact and undamaged despite being quite delicate. Light scattered foxing throughout. Ownership signature of the college's original dean N.R. Mosely struck out at the top of the Faculty list on page 4; pencil ticks next to the names of several students listed in the catalogue on page 6. Exceptionally rare OCLC lists copies of this Announcement at only 2 institutions.<br/><br/>Only one year after Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell graduated valedictorian and became the first female M.D. in the U.S. the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania opened its doors. Located in Philadelphia it was the only the second school to open with the mission of training women in medicine -- having been preceded by the New England Female Medical College two years earlier in 1848. Founded by Quaker abolitionist and Underground Railroad activists who believed that women could make exceptional doctors "the college provided rare opportunities for women to teach perform research manage a medical school and with the eventual establishment of the Woman's Hospital in 1861 learn and practice in a hospital setting. It was the longest-lasting all-women medical school in the nation until it became coeducational in 1970" Mandell. The present Announcement predates these growths however showing the roots from which they emerged. One year running and the faculty remain largely male because there has yet to be an inaugural graduating class this would come in 1852; but already a female student Hannah E. Longshore is listed as a Demonstrator in Anatomy. Indeed Longshore and her sister Anna would both be part of the inaugural class of the college with the latter going on the author Discourses to Women in Medical Subjects 1897. Indeed the majority of women listed in this catalogue went on to become doctors even when it took time -- as it did for Hannah W. Ellis and Susanna H. Ellis both listed among the graduates of the 1865 class. 12 pages in all this scarce pamphlet contains Officers Corporators Faculty and Students of the school; an Announcement on the school's missions and accomplishments; information on Specialties available; Terms of enrollment; and a list of required Textbooks. It also conveys the excitement optimism and pride of those involved. "The Faculty of the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania are inspired by very different feelings from those that attended their efforts one year ago. Then they were about to enter into an untried path to engage in a great experiment.But that which was an experiment is an experiment no longer.give a woman knowledge commensurate with her natural qualifications enable her to go forth healing the sick and comforting the afflicted and she will bless the world." A rare survivor documenting that pivotal moment when women had been given the chance to prove their intellect rose to the challenge and made the future of the next female students more secure.
