LOOK TO GERMANY
Book Type: S, O By Stanley McClatchie Originally written in 1936 and published in Germany by Heinrich Hoffmann, this was and still is a very controversial book. The author, an American, had lived for some years in Germany prior to the Nazi Party ascent to power. Clearly the author 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. McClatchie wrote Look To Germany in an effort to explain how he felt about the changes he witnessed in Germany under National Socialism. He new 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 WWII 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. After the war all editions of the book were considered so dangerous by the Allies that de-Nazification commissions sought them out for destruction. Look to Germany is in fact absolutely indispensable to any genuine understanding of the origins of WWII in Europe. Today the book is so rare (getting $300+ in the second hand book market) that it is generally unavailable to researchers. This is an exact replica and includes 300 full-page, half page and double page photos, oversize with laminated covers. 252 pp.
