Rough spot inside rear board, ink name & address inside front flyleaf, some weakness to front board, boards somewhat soiled and worn, pencil marks on front board, small tear to bottom edge of spine. First American Edition of Mein Kampf in English, but may be a later printing. Blanche Dugdale urged her husband, E. T. S. Dugdale, to write an abridgment of Mein Kampf. Dugdale began his work on this abridgment in about 1931, but he,initially, was unable to find a publisher for it. In early 1933, at the time of the Nazi seizure of power in Germany, Dugdale apparently got in touch with Eher Verlag, who put him into contact with the firm of Hurst and Blackett. The latter firm was in the process of buying the translation rights from Curtis Brown for a sum of £350. Dugdale offered the abridgment to Hurst & Blackett free of charge, with the stipulation that his name not be used for the British edition. Before the book could go to press, however, Hurst and Blackett were visited by Dr. Hans Wilhelm Thost, an active member of the "Nazi organization" in London. Thost insisted on taking a copy to Berlin for further censoring and official sanction. The abridgment was finally published in October 1933. In the United States, Houghton Mifflin secured the rights to the Dugdale abridgment on July 29, 1933. The only differences between the American and British versions are that the title was translated My Struggle in the UK and My Battle in America; and that Dugdale is credited as translator in the US edition.

Washington, DC: U. S. Government Printing Office, 1974. Reprint. Stiff boards. 24 cm. 217, (1) pages. Wraps (stiff card covers, nearly hardbound). 8 fold-out maps. Footnotes. Bibliographical Note. Slight wear and soiling to covers. Unconventional warfare has gained in importance along with the increase in range and destructiveness of weapons. It was a particularly potent factor in several theaters of operations during World War II, but in none did it play a more significant role than on the Eastern front during that conflict. There the guerrilla movement behind the Axis forces gained in importance as the Soviet Army withdrew deeper and deeper into its homeland, trading space for time until mobilization could be completed and winter act as an ally. If The Soviet Partisan Movement, 1941-1944 is studied in connection with operational studies of the war on the east European front during World War II, it should prove to be of great value to students of that conflict. It should also prove of particular value to the Army staff and schools and colleges as a reference work in partisan warfare. More
