Description:
No Dust JacketBook: Blemishes - Light rubbing on panel edges caused by shelf storage. Light soiling on page edges of a few of the pages. The LR front panel is curled (photo). The book has a Preface and commercial advertisements (Paris) on all but the Title Panel (photo).
For a century-old crudely bound publication--with paper of any quality a rare commodity during the mid-point of World War I--this is a remarkably preserved and rare limited-edition copy. Unblemished photographs and drawings on every page and the binding is still firm and strong.
Heavily biased (propaganda) Belgian account of the German invasion and occupation of World War I Belgium.
"Cometh the day that all shall pay."

Before-and-after monochrome photographs and inked illustrations of German shelling and bombardment of prominent Belgium landmarks and buildings (photo).
