About This Item
Pages are clear and readable, although there are a few with minor creases; name plate affixed to front end papers; shelf wear on page ends; moderate to heavy wear on the covers and spine, which affects some of the lettering (fading); binding intact.
(from the preface) ...... While it claims no direct bearing upon the serious problems of existence in these strenuous times, this book is offered without apology; for concerning war directly and indirectly there is literature without end, and it has been virtuously assumed by many of us that the finer and quieter things of life must be too much neglected. The spirit of destruction is rampant, and is eating its way into our lives whether we will it or no. Our best energies are spent in the creation of huge and elaborate mechanisms for the sole purpose of destroying and of being destroyed.
