by STOWE, Leland
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1941. Hardcover. Very Good. Fourth printing, September 1941. 432pp. Fold-out map. Stained front endpapers, lightly worn, about very good lacking the dustwrapper. Stowe was a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist during the time leading up to, and during World War II, which he covered in depth. Here he writes about the war in Finland, Sweden, and Norway, then continues on to the Balkans and Greece. Published in 1941 just months before the United States entered the war; his concluding chapters debate the necessity of the U.S. to do so, and argues against the isolationists, particularly Charles Lindbergh.
