  • Illustrated lining-papers.
  • "The facts in this book are fictitious, in the sense that nothing recorded here actualy happened in any of the places mentioned. But in a much more vital sense, the facts in this book are not fictitious. They are the revaluation against an American background of what happened in those neutral European countries which were suddenly attacked and overrun by the Nazis."--Postscript.
