Haddon Craftsmen Publishers on copyright page no large period on page 112. Book is near Fine,no writing, binding tight and square with sharp points. very clean blue cloth boards with bright silver titles to spine, embossed titles and title block to front board, very crisp and clean book. Owner's title on front end paper, in ink. Very Good price-clipped dust jacket, colors vibrant showing very slight shelf wear at top and bottom of spine.

In this masterful tale set in Norway during World War II, Steinbeck explores the effects of invasion on both the conquered and the conquerors. As he delves into the emotions of the German commander and the Norwegian traitor, and depicts the spirited patriotism of the Norwegian underground, Steinbeck uncovers profound, often unsettling truths about war-and about human nature.
The Moon is Down was secretly translated into French, Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, Swedish, German, Italian and Russian; hundreds of thousands of copies circulated throughout Europe, making it by far the most popular piece of propaganda under the occupation. Few literary works of our time have demonstrated so triumphantly the power of ideas in the face of cold steel and brute force.

Description:
Very little has been said about "The Volunteers", a band of british people from every walk of life who volunteered to fight the Russians following their invasion of Finland. This book is a captivating read that goes into detail with soldiers, airmen, ambulance personnel and firemen, and with the tragi-comi incidents which followed their demobilization after the end of the Winter War in March 1940 and which only ended when the last one was repatriated late in 1942. Much of the information given has been obtained by special permission from official Finnish and Swedish archives and is now in print for the first time. Book includes copies of photographs taken during this time (1939 - 1941). Condition: This book has never been read and stored for many years. The book shows no signs of wear. Please see photos

"Die Stempel mit dem Schriftzug: "Alfred-Rosenberg-Spende für die Deutsche Wehrmacht …". Eine kurze Untersuchung nach anderen Belegen und Formen über diesen Stempel ergab, dass solche Stempel auch mit anderen Gaubezeichnungen bekannt sind. Es handelte sich bei diesen Aktionen um deutschlandweite Buchsammlungen, die das Ziel verfolgten, den Soldaten an der Front Bücher zukommen zu lassen.
Durchgeführt wurde die Aktion "Buchspende für die Deutsche Wehrmacht" vom Kriegs-Winterhilfswerk, dem ein Aufruf Rosenbergs voranging.
