Hailed as "the most devoted foreign admirer" of OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists), Arthur Fuhrman was a German, who had spent years with Ukrainian nationalists in Vorkuta Gulag in Siberia, after being deported there at the end of the Second World War. He often refered to the latter as Banderites, after Stepan Bandera, and to himself as a Banderite. His current autobiographical historical novel was published in Ukrainian in London. Very good .

Ukrainska Voenna Doktryna, Chastina Persha (the Military Doctrine of Ukrainian Nationalists, First Part)

Toronto, T-va kol. voiakiv UPA v Kanadi i ZDA, 1957. Second edition (first edition published in Canada, originally released in 1940 in Krakow); 8 3/4 x 6 1/4; pp. [1], 4-62; stapled beige wraps, printed in red and black and decorated with a vignette and an elaborate border; minor age-toning to margins and light wear to corners and tips of spine; illustrated with portrait frontis; in very good or better condition. Colonel Mykhailo Kolodzinskyi (1902 - 1939) was a major figure of OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists), Chief in the Carpathian Sich, and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of Carpathian Ukraine. He would be killed in a battle with Hungarian troops on March 18th, 1939, just three days after Carpathian Ukraine was proclaimed an independent state. The appearance of his current book was called "an epoch-making event for the further development of Ukrainian military thought of the XX century." Written between 1935 and 1937, the first part was published posthumously in Poland and the second and third parts were copied and distributed in manuscript among OUN members and until very recently - considered lost. Copies of the latter woud be eventually discovered and published in 2019. Replete with calls for anti-Jewish pogroms, the first part discribed history and politics, the second - borders of Ukraine, and the third - the ideology of the Ukrainian Liberation War. Very good .
