About This Item
Boston: Small, Maynard & Company Publishers. Good. 1919. First Edition. Hardcover. "The facts presented in the following pages may perhaps not be accepted without surprise and wonder as to their authenticity. The world at large has not yet quite appreciated the full extent of the secret intrigues which were carried on in the former German Empire before and during [WWI] that was to break its might and destroy it. And yet the whole fabric of German politics was built on these intrigues. From the time that Bismarck instituted his famous Bureau of Espionage, these machinations were steadily going on throught the whole of Europe and in America as well, and it seems desirable that the activity of this bureau in its nefarious work in Russia be exposed." - page 1. [8], 293 pp. Frontispiece photo of Trotzky and Lenine marshalling their forces for revolt, plus eight additional black and white plates. Moderate wear to maroon cloth lettered and decorated in gilt. Binding sound. Prior owner's name neatly upon front free endpaper, otherwise contents clean and unmarked. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. A sound vintage copy. Smele 1107. ; 8vo; 0 pages .
