This is an original Second Edition of the Rassenfibel or Race Primer by Dr. Robert Lehmann, a very well-known doctor from Düsseldorf and advisor to the state on matters of race. This rare 5-¼ x 7-½ inch, 100-page softcover Nazi book contains 52 images and was published by Verlag Offene Worte in Berlin, a highly respected publisher of military and other manuals.

The book starts out with an overview on the matter of race, racial characters and racial types, which is followed by the National Socialist view on the mixing of races, Jews and their effect on German culture and how to curb the Jewish influence on German society. Jewish materialism and domination are covered and Jewish spirituality is compared to German spirituality.

There is also a section on efforts to prevent the breeding of German people with hereditary or genetic diseases and new laws in Nazi Germany regarding inferior people who endanger the racial purity of the Nordic race. Also covered are the breeding of superior animals, the duties of German women, the importance of large, racially pure families, etc.

This 90 year old book has a foreword by the author dated November 1933 which he refers to as "the year of the German National Turning Point".

The book ends with examples of Ahnentafel and family trees. Inside the front and back cover is advertising for other books published by Verlag Offene Worte in Berlin on War Art, Sport, Air Raid Protection etc.

This Second Edition example of Dr. Robert Lehmann's rare Rassenfibel is in very good condition, but please note that the previous owner tried to cover up the swastika on the title page (shown right). The last page is for Notizen, and it is empty. No odor, tight spine.
