Seller's Description:
Like New. Size: 10x8x0; Unread and unopened! (Hard to list as 'New' when it's 22 years old). This book was written by American Stanley McClatchie in 1936 and published in Germany in 1937. The youthful McClatchie, a member of a wealthy and well-known southern California family, had lived for some years in Germany prior to the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (Nazi) ascent to power after victory in the Reichstag elections of January 1933. Clearly, McClatchie was impressed by the consolidation of political power that Hitler had engineered, but he was also very impressed by the industrial, technical and social revolution that had taken place in Germany under the Nazis, which had altered every aspect of the land and people he thought he knew. By any measure, the first four years of National Socialist government in Germany were an overwhelming success. It was difficult for Nazis (and even ordinary Germans) to avoid boasting about their near-miraculous recovery from the economic and social hell imposed upon Germany in the wake of its military defeat in World War I. The recovery in Allied countries like Britain and France-even in America-lagged far behind the German rate of recovery. In spite of the success of the Nazis who were so popular in Germany, their economic, social and military competitors could find nothing good to say about them or Germany. Quite the contrary, the press in the British Empire, France and America assumed an entirely anti-German stance. Tourism to Germany and German manufactured goods were boycotted and embargoes were placed on raw materials needed in Germany. The disastrous effects of the boycotts and embargoes on the German economy convinced Hitler to redouble scientific research efforts in the hope of making Germany far less dependent on imported raw materials and foreign export markets. The research yielded amazing results in areas like synthetic gasoline and rubber from coal, pharmaceuticals, electronics, chemicals, etc. While the German-bashing in England and America continued unabated, millions in the-Soviet Union were being killed in Stalin's political purges. Still, impressed foreigners and the western media hailed a "communist victory" over Soviet social and economic ills in almost religious terms. By the autumn of 1939 the armies of Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler had overrun and divided the country of Poland, three-fifths of it going to the Soviet Union and two-fifths to Germany. Britain and France immediately declared war on Germany (but oddly, they did not declare war on the Soviet Union) and World War II had begun. Less than six years later the war was over, millions upon millions of people had died and Hitler had killed himself in his bunker far beneath the streets of central Berlin. Germany was in ruins and for the second time in less than thirty years her industry, research facilities, maritime fleet, foreign holdings and even her population were disbursed among the victors as war reparations. Stanley McClatchie knew and wrote that, "Look to Germany'' would be seen as Nazi propaganda by many, and in the narrowest sense of the word it certainly was. When World War II began American owners of the English language edition of Look to Germany discarded the book in an effort to avoid the appearance of being Nazi sympathizers and thus, unpatriotic. After the war all editions of the book were considered to be dangerous by the victorious Allies so de-Nazification commissions sought them out for destruction. Sixty-five years after it was written Look to Germany is, like Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf, still considered "too dangerous" to be sold or read in Germany and several other European countries. Look to Germany is in fact absolutely indispensable to any genuine understanding of the origins of World War II in Europe. No intelligent person would undertake an examination of the origins of the American Revolution without reading everything in print that could shed light on...
