F BECK & W GODIN TRANSLATED FROM THE ORIGINAL GERMAN BY ERIC MOSBACHER & DAVID PORTER  Russian Purge and The Extraction Of Confession
London, Hurst & Blackett. 1951, First Edition. (ISBN: No ISBN) Hard Cover , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Politics. Political History. No event in recent history so tremendous as the Russian purge of 1936-39 has remained apparently so incomprehensible; to the Soviet people, and to the two authors of this work, who were among its victims, the purge still seems to be utterly fantastic; the authors deliberately refrain from making any moral or political judgements, presenting a factual picture and leaving the reader to draw his own conclusions. 232 pages, good blue cloth with good gilt lettering on spine, presumably ex-library with 'discarded' stamps on fep and half title page but no other library marks, name written at top of fep, foxing on eps and edges of pages. Very Good/No Jacket.
AUD 45.00 [Appr.: EURO 28 US$ 41.58 | £UK 25.25 | JP¥ 3674] Book number: PL7823

JOHN WEISS GENERAL EDITOR GEOFFREY CARRACLOUGH  Conservatism In Europe 1770-1945: Traditionalism Reaction & Counter-Revolution (Library of European Civilization)
London, Thames & Hudson. 1977. (ISBN: 0500320357) Hard Cover with dust jacket, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Political History. In contrast to the wealth of studies devoted to liberalism and the left, the history of conservatism in modern Europe remains a neglected topic; yet throughout the 19th century conservatives in Europe maintained a striking political dominance and drew powerful support from all sectors of society: landed and military elites fearing commercial entrepreneurship and democratically based electorates; clerics seeking to defend the powers and privileges of the Church against liberal secularism; artisans resisting machine technology and free enterprise; peasants and villages equating city ways with moral decay; by the end of the century the erosion of traditional economic interests and social values produced a number of revolutionary conservatives who were prepared to reverse modern trends by any means necessary; 50 illustrations. 180pp, stamp of previous owner on fep, spine sunned. Very Good/Very Good.
