Senator Henrick Shipstead denounced it as "America's eternal monument of shame for the destruction of the German people." - Congressional Record Senate May 15 1946 p.5039. "The punishment policy deeply betrayed the will of the American people against indiscriminate vengeance which had been demonstrated in the nationwide condemnation of the Morgenthau Plan." - James Bacque Other Losses p.158.

Thus only 60 percent of the population could support themselves and the other 40 percent would die." - The Memoirs of Cordell Hull p.1617.

1953214h6109Appleton Wisconsin: C.C. Nelson Publishing Company. Fair in Good dust jacket. 1953. Second Printing With Revisions. Hardcover. Charles A. Lindbergh's copy signed and inscribed to him by his fellow seeker of peace justice and historical truth Harry Elmer Barnes 1889-1968 whom Murray Rothbard eulogized as "the last of the truly erudite historians." A truly magnificent provenance for this work which "shows how the extension of military operations to civilian populations and property and the increasingly destructive nature of total warfare menace the very future of humanity and Western civilization. This work makes it clear how the Nuremberg war-crimes trials far from curbing the barbarism of present-day warfare will make it absolutely certain that every known form of destructiveness and mass-murder however fiendish and devastating will surely be brought forth in the desperate effort to avoid a defeat which in all future wars will mean the summary liquidation of the political leaders and top military officers of the vanquished countries." - dust jacket. Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi among others would probably concur. As the most prominent spokesman for the America First Committee which sought to keep America out of WWII Lindbergh most likely endorsed the conclusions of this book first issued in England in 1948 under a nom de plume by Veale "a lawyer and student of history with a lifelong interest in the cause of peace and international justice." - xi. On page vii Veale refers specifically to Barnes by stating "in accordance with what Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes has called 'The Historical Blackout' the bulk of the British press newspaper and periodical alike rigidly ignored the first edition of this book. Not one London newspaper with a nation-wide circulation reviewed it." Eventually this work was issued in 18 editions and three languages. pp. xvii 1 305. Index. Bibliography.

"Uses historical time series and economic analysis to argue the then-novel proposition that changes in the money supply profoundly influenced the U.S. economy especially the behavior of economic fluctuations. The implication drawn is that changes in the money supply had unintended adverse effects and that sound monetary policy is necessary for economic stability. Orthodox economic historians see this as one of the most influential economics books of the century. Friedman 1912-2006 won the 1976 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences.

1930112h6061Durham NC U.S.A.: Duke University Press. Very Good in Fair dust jacket. 1930. First Edition. Hardcover. "The notion of identifiable 'lost tribes' involves certain presuppositions concerning Hebrew history and masses of supposed local evidence in many parts of the world. These presuppositions and the assumed evidence require a candid and searching anthropological historical examination. This book has no other purpose or method. But the examination brings to light a great body of the real facts of Hebrew history." - Preface. "The main thrust of Godbey's work is to disprove the assumption that the northern tribes taken into captivity by Sargon II in 722/1 B. C. were lost in the welter of international movements following that event." - J. M. Myers. "Godbey is fascinating. He is well worth reading - for his consummate passion for detail for his marvelously intricate tapestry of scholarship in an area where so much is tricky territory. He tells us a great deal about the horizontal development of Judaism." - Dr. Morris Epstein. "Fascinatingly erudite." - Michael Pollack in "Mandarins Jews and Missionaries. "Allen Howard Godbey 1864-1948 of Missouri was a Methodist minister Methodist historian and teacher writer and scholar in the field of the Old Testament Hebrew history archeology and Semitics.

1993214h1742USA: Basic Books. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1993. First Edition. Hardcover. 0465042147 . Signed and inscribed upon front free endpaper by John Sack to producer Jean Doumanian. "Set in Poland in the last days of World War II and the period immediately thereafter when the USSR was ethnically cleansing the region of Germans this book tells of the internment camps set up by the Soviets in Poland sometimes re-using camps captured from the Germans in which they placed captured Germans and over which they set as administrators several of the Jews who had been interned in the Nazi camps. James Bacque sparked controversy in 1989 with his book 'Other Losses' about Germans who died in internment camps under General Eisenhower in roughly the same period. Sack's book was for reasons that should be plain even more controversial. Sack it should be noted was of Jewish ethnicity." - Gerry T. Neal. "Nothing has ever been written about this. To unearth the story the author spent seven years doing research and conducting interviews in Poland Germany Israel and the United States. Sixty-five pages of notes and sources testify to the accuracy of the reporting." - dust jacket. An unattributed online synopsis states "Not for sixty years has a book been so brutally and in the end unsuccessfully suppressed as 'An Eye for an Eye'. One major newspaper one major magazine and three major publishers paid $40000 for it but were scared off. One printed 6000 books then pulped them. Two dozen publishers read and praised it but all rejected it. Once published it became a best-seller in Europe but was so shunned in America that it became in the words of New York Magazine 'The Book They Dare Not Review'". "John Sack 1930-2004 was an American literary journalist and war correspondent." - Wikipedia. Laid-in is a signed letter on Sack's letterhead to Doumanian in which he explains "The story is true. It has been corroborated by 60 Minutes and The New York Times. From this day on let no one say 'They don't write parts for women'". He goes on to itemize the actions of "real-life heroine Lola" which are recounted in this book. Perhaps Doumanian who produced several Woody Allen films considered making a movie based on this book. In a 1999 talk available online Sack describes visiting Yad Vashem in 1989 to conduct research saying "As you know Yad Vashem has fifty million documents about the Holocaust. I asked what they had about Jews in the Office of State Security. They said 'Nothing'. I said 'It had Jewish Commandants and Jewish Directors.' The Chairman of Yad Vashem replied 'It sounds rather imaginary' and the Director of Archives said to me 'Impossible.'" p. xii 2 252. Clean bright tight and unmarked with light wear.

1944864H4484Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company. Good in Good dust jacket. 1944. First Edition. Hardcover. Signed and inscribed by Jan Karski upon front free endpaper. Karski 1914-2000 recounts his experiences when his homeland of Poland was rent asunder by the joint Nazi and Soviet invasion of 1939 and his harrowing subsequent life as a member of the Polish underground during which he was captured by the Gestapo and severely tortured. Provides a ghastly eyewitness account of life in the Warsaw ghetto into which Karski was smuggled so his observations could be reported to the outside world. Firearms advocates will cringe at Karski's account of what happened after he and a large group of Polish soldiers handed over their weapons to their 'comrades' from the Soviet Union.

1948566h5692London: Westropa Press. Good with no dust jacket. 1948. First Edition. Hardcover. "This book is different from other books. First of all it is only in form a book at all. In reality it is a part of the life of action. It is a turning-point in European history a late turning-point but a real one. This book is itself the first blow in the gigantic war for the liberation of Europe. The prime enemy is the traitor within Europe who alone makes possible the starving and looting of Europe by the outer forces. He is the symbol of Chaos and Death. Between him and the spirit of the twentieth century is unremitting war." - Foreword. "The spectacle of Yockey 1917-1960 being persecuted framed and driven to his death simply because he wrote this book is not one we would expect to see in the Twentieth Century in the land of the free and the home of the brave." - Willis Carto. 10 iv 4-405 3 pp. Average wear and soiling to publisher's khaki cloth.

1797372917Philadelphia 1797. 1p. plus integral blank. Bifolium. Unbound. Old folds minor separations at fold repaired. Provenance: General Theological Seminary unmarked. 1p. plus integral blank. Bifolium. In 1797 the Pennsylvania Senate passed a bill related to establishing schools throughout the Commonwealth for public education. This petition here un-accomplished but designed for use by various denominational groups to collect signatures notes the passage of the legislation and argues that various religious group have already established schools that provide both secular and religious education: <br /> <br /> "We are convinced that Schools ought to be established but we are fully persuaded that their establishment should be conducted and regulated in such a manner that they may not become an injury nuisance or detriment to those good citizens of this State who as members of certain religious societies conscientiously think it their duty not only to confer useful knowledge upon their children but also to instruct them in the religious principles peculiar to themselves." <br /> <br /> The petition continues arguing that public funds earmarked for education should be provided for their denominational schools: "Should your Honourable House institute Schools according to the design expressed in the bills above mentioned then we humbly pray that our schools which are already erected or may hereafter be erected in and by any of the Congregations of our profession in this State may be endowed with a full share and portion of the monies to be raised by a Tax and of the funds to be appropriated to any of the Schools contemplated by the said bills and with this provision that such our Schools shall remain under the sold inspection and direction of persons appointed by our respective Congregations for that purpose." <br /> <br /> The petition concludes: "As the object of our petition is proper and just and founded on the principles of religious Liberty guaranteed by the Constitution of this State we have every right and reason to expect that our request will be granted: And we shall ever pray."<br /> <br /> This is the only example of this petition recorded by ESTC and we cannot locate an earlier example of a petition by a denominational group for public funding of religious education in the United States.

1939222j2678London: Longman's Green and Co. Good with no dust jacket. 1939. First Edition. Hardcover. "This is a very long book but it has to be long. Since the real history of Palestine for two decades has been kept hidden from the public it is in a sense necessary here to recreate those lost twenty years in as much of their detail as possible. Half the facts I have to give have never been mentioned at all many of the documents have never been quoted. There was no Palestine Question nor ever would have been one if certain statesmen had not created it. The book deals primarily with the story of how Palestine was placed under Mandatory government in order to establish the 'Jewish National Home' which later - it was intended - should become a Jewish State. Under no circumstances can it be sustained that because of the prophecies of the Old Testament the Jews have a permit to return to Palestine arbitrarily and wrongfully. To do so would provide an example never before seen of Scripture being quoted for the devil's purpose." - Introduction. J. M. N. Jeffries 18801960 was a British war correspondent historian and author. Between 1914 and 1933 he wrote for the Daily Mail serving as a war correspondent as head of the Paris bureau during World War I.

1922441j1364New York: Charles Scribners Sons. Good in Good dust jacket. 1922. First Edition. Hardcover. Signed and inscribed by Stoddard upon front free endpaper. "The revolutionary unrest which to-day afflicts the entire world goes far deeper than is generally supposed. Its root-cause is not Russian Bolshevik propaganda nor the late war nor the French Revolution but a process of racial impoverishment which destroyed the great civilizations of the past and which threatens to destroy our own. In light of recent biological discoveries confirmed and amplified by investigations in other fields of science especially psychology all political and social problems need to be re-examined. Such a re-examination of one of these problems - the problem of social revolution - has been attempted in the present book." - Preface. "A penetrating study of the under man here in America." - Boston Herald. "How any one with an interest in the future of the nation can fail to heed studiously the questions he very lucidly raises it is difficult to conceive." - Harold Callender in the New York Herald.

His books were once widely read both inside and outside the United States. This book introduced the term Untermensch the German translation of 'under man' into Nazi conceptions of race.

1938426j1629Asheville North Carolina: Pelley Publishers. Very Good. 1938. First Edition. Hardcover. "Elmhurst has assembled and produced the data in a readable story which shows irrefutably that Communism is not merely a crackpot program for undermining the Christian governments of the world with unworkable socialistic theories carried into practice. The young man has scoured up the data in enthralling biographical form attesting that communism is world Jewry in action! I pride myself that I know something about Jews and Communism. In 1918 I found myself in Siberian Russia. I traveled 700 versts in that stricken country while Communism was 'coming in'. After coming home from Russia I spent five years in the fleshpots of Hollywood making moving pictures shoulder to shoulder with Jews. I served a stiff apprenticeship in Jewish psychology and temperament. I read the complete manuscript of this book in one evening - at one sitting - because it held my interest convincingly unflaggingly till the last page had been reached. The author and his co-helper Miss Theresa Holm scoured the libraries of the world and compiled therefrom the devasting sic data out of the mouths of the Sons of Jacob themselves. Good Christians seem to forget that Christ was the world's outstanding Jew-Baiter and that the sons of Jacob slew him for His Naziism!" - Introduction.

Original mock up for a personnel sign up sheet for SCOPE volunteers consisting of two manuscript sheets in an unknown hand along with four repurposed Morehouse college student personnel sheets with holographic additions and revisions all combined to compose a thorough volunteer information packet for SCOPE volunteers looking to be sent around the Deep South to work volunteer voter drives. The Summer Community Organization and Political Education Project of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference was a voter registration civil rights initiative conducted from 1965 to 1966 in 120 counties in six southern states.<br /> <br /> Officially announced by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at a speech in 1965 at UCLA the project started with a plan to recruit up to 2000 students from all across the US but fell short of this goal mostly due to fear of violent retribution many volunteers possibly faced. <br /> <br /> The project officially kicked off with an orientation in June of 1965 at Morris brown College in Atlanta ad afterwards volunteers tested and reported violations of the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act in counties throughout the South. <br /> <br /> SCOPE volunteers were subject to violence tear-gassing harassment and threats with guns on numerous occasions according to "incident reports" from the project's administrative records. <br /> <br /> On June 18 1965 in Camden Alabama for example 18 SCOPE workers were arrested in a church for "illegal possession of boycott materials." One SCOPE worker Mike Farley was beaten in jail by a white prisoner who was reportedly both bribed and threatened by a jailer to attack Farley. On July 8 in Wilcox County Alabama three cars carrying SCOPE workers were shot at by white men after police stopped SCOPE workers and spoke with white men. On July 15 in Chatham County Georgia SCOPE worker Shirley Savaris was threatened by a white man with a gun and told to leave town. The next day in Taliaferro County Georgia SCOPE workers were threatened by a deputy sheriff and county attorney with beatings and killings "if they did not leave town the next day." Also in Taliaferro County on July 23 SCOPE volunteer Richard Copeland was beaten by two whites on the courthouse steps in Crawfordsville the county seat. On July 28 in Sussex County Virginia two SCOPE workers Gary Imsland and Elke Wiedenroth were run off the road while returning from a church meeting and threatened by a white man armed with a shotgun. In Luverne Alabama on August 3 SCOPE workers Dunbar Reed Bruce Hartford and Carol Richardson along with a number of local students were attacked and beaten by a white mob after they integrated a local cafe. On August 18 in Berkeley County South Carolina two SCOPE volunteers were beaten after attempting to integrate restaurants in Monk's Corner. The local SCOPE office and volunteer residence was shot up the following day. [Southern Christian Leadership Conference] unknown

"Thomas Story Kirkbride July 31 1809 December 16 1883 was a physician advocate for the mentally ill and founder of the Association of Medical Superintendents of American Institutions for the Insane AMSAII a precursor to the American Psychiatric Association. In 1840 Kirkbride became superintendent of the Pennsylvania Hospital for the Insane. In 1844 Kirkbride helped to found AMSAII becoming secretary and treasurer and subsequently its president from 1862 to 1870. Kirkbride pioneered what would be known as the Kirkbride Plan to improve medical care for the insane as a standardization for buildings that housed the patients. Kirkbride's influential work On the Construction Organization and General Arrangements of Hospitals for the Insane with Some Remarks on Insanity and Its Treatment was published in 1854 and again in 1880. Kirkbride's ideas brought about mixed feelings in both patients and peers. Some in the medical community saw his theories and ideas as stubbornly clinging to ideals that hindered medical progress while others supported his ideas and saw them change the treatment philosophy for the mentally insane. In his patients he sometimes inspired fear and anger even to the point that one attempted to murder him but he also believed that the mentally ill could be treated and possibly cured and in fact Kirkbride after the death of his first wife married a former patient. Kirkbride was an advocate of building hospitals for the mentally ill in a style which he believed promoted recovery and healing. This style was used on many late 19th century hospitals including St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington D.C. Many of these buildings designed by leading architects of the time are in ruins or decay. An estate now known as "The Village" previously Traverse City State Hospital was saved from destruction and beautifully restored." K073. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket.
