Hillson, Norman. I speak of Germany. A Plea for Anglo-German Friendship. First Edition. London, George Routledge & Sons, Ltd., 1937. C. 21 x 14 cm. ix, 301 pages. Complete with eight Plates, as listed. Original red cloth. Hard cover with gilt title on spine. Very good condition. Minor shelf wear, rubbing and bumping. Edges and end papers dust dulled. Ex Libris and 1942 inscription on front paste down. Internally clean. A nice copy of the scarce first edition. First edition, published in 1937. This is an account of the author’s travels in Germany, and is largely sympathetic to the changes wrought by the regime. Like others adopting a similar position, the author believes that the terms of the Versailles treatment put Germany in an impossible position, and that the Nazis had inspired a recovery. Racial politics, whilst not ignored, are not seen as being at the heart of the programme – `obsession of race purity maybe a little absurd and quite impractical of realization’.
