Minor page discoloration noted. Hans Georg Fritzsche (21 April 1900 – 27 September 1953) was a senior German Nazi official, ending the war as Ministerialdirektor at the Propagandaministerium (Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda). He was present in the Berlin Führerbunker during the last days of Adolf Hitler. After Hitler's death, he went over to the Soviet lines in Berlin to offer the surrender of the city to the Red Army on 1 May 1945. Fritzsche was taken prisoner by Soviet Red Army soldiers. At first he was held prisoner in a basement and then sent to Moscow for interrogation at Lubyanka Prison. He was confined to a "standing coffin", a 3-foot-square cell where it was impossible to sleep, and placed on a bread and hot water diet. He eventually signed a confession. Later, while on trial at Nuremberg, he wrote his account of Soviet prison which was published in Switzerland. More

Fuerzas Militares, 2001. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Wraps. Format is approximately 10.75 inches by 8.25 inches. 92 pages. Illustrations. This publication provides information on the effect of the guerrilla activities of FARC, ELN and comparable groups on Columbian citizens. This publication lists and describes the cases occurred since August 1998 to July 2001, regarding which, the armed groups outside the law--guerrilla or illegal self defense groups--in addition to incurring in behaviors clearly sanctioned by local criminal laws, commit serious infractions to International Human Rights Law. The statistics refer taking of hostages, attempts against the environment, attacks against civil property, attacks against civil individuals and villages, attempts against protected property and other series of facts that openly ignore the regulations prescribing basic human rights, indispensable in order to respect specially protected individuals and property. The majority of criminal facts committed in Colombia are the result of illegal actions and inhuman and criminal violence broken loose by the guerrilla and illegal self-defense groups, which ignore the most elemental principles of civilization and continuously incur in threats, outrages and cruelty, through behaviors that flagrantly ignore the right to life and the personal integrity of many citizens.
