HUGE HITLER YOUTH BOOK |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
,,DAS JUNGE REICH
(THE YOUTHFUL STATE) ,,EIN BUCH DER HITLER-JUGEND (A BOOK ABOUT THE HITLER YOUTH) |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This is an excellent example of the big 7-1/2 x 9-1/4 inch, 216 page, very heavily illustrated linen bound hard cover book ,,Das junge Reich - Vom Leben und Wollen der neuen deutschen Jugend (The Youthful State - Life and Desires of the New German Youth) published by Eugen Frieder Bartelmäs in the mid 1930s. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The book has more than 100 pictures and tables within the text. Naturally, it begins with a photo of Adolf Hitler and Hitler Youth Leader Baldur von Schirach walking through a long row of HJ boys. There follows a boldly outlined list of Hitler-Jugend martyrs killed by Nazi opponents and then covers virtually every subject of interest to Hitler Youth and BdM girls: everything from belief to opportunities to history of the HJ movement. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
There are chapters on the aviation HJ, soldiering, the naval HJ, Hitler Youth schooling, the Jungenlager at Eiswaldsee, etc.
There is an inscription presenting this book to a youth Fritz Eifert on one of the blank front pages. The book is complete with its original full-color dust jacket. |

This example of ,,Das junge Reich is absolutely basic to any study of the nazi Hitler Youth in National Socialist Germany. Very good condition. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
