Description: 1938. MANN, Thomas. THE COMING VICTORY OF DEMOCRACY. (Translated by Agnes E. Meyer.) New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1938. First edition, his friend | Thomas Mann | 23.VI.38" 70 pp. 8vo. black cloth, title printed in gold ink to spine, Mann's initials blind-stamped to upper board, publisher's device blind-stamped to lower board. Dust-soiling to top-edge, but internally clean and fresh. The sizing to cloth cover has been removed in places, due to moisture, and small bits of the dust jacket have adhered to the cloth; the dust jacket is dampstained in corresponding places, with some red offset to the upper panel. Also, it is spine sunned, with small loss at spinal ends and at the fold-in corners. It would be only an acceptable reading copy if it were not for Mann's inscription. This is the text of a lecture, in slightly abbreviated form, delivered by Mann on a coast-to-coast lecture tour February to May 1938. .
