by Basil Collier

Published by Doubleday & Company, Inc.. 1st. 1964

Nearly fine condition in a very good dustwrapper. A concise, engrossing, and comprehensive re-capitulation of modern history, together with the author's own outspoken appraisal of the deplorably divergent courses of the Western democracies. Beige cloth boards, black title to spine.

Neat name & date in pencil to front endpaper. Pictorial dustwrapper is edge-worn with a few small closed tears and chips.
