Nashville, Tennessee: Vanderbilt University Press, 2016. 616pgs. Black boards, Burgundy spine, wihite lettering. illustrated. lower corner bumped, otherwise as new. Unclipped pictorial jacket as new. Nansen recorded the mundane and horrific details of camp life as they happened, "from day to day." With an unsparing eye, Nansen described the casual brutality and random terror that was the fate of a camp prisoner. His entries reveal his constantly frustrated hopes for an early end to the war, his longing for his wife and children, his horror at the especially barbaric treatment reserved for Jews, and his disgust at the anti-Semitism of some of his fellow Norwegians. Nansen often confronted his German jailors with unusual outspokenness and sometimes with a sense of humor and absurdity that was not appreciated by his captors.. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Small 4to.
