The World Crisis 1911-1918 ( Abridged and Revised)
Scribner’s, NY, 1931, 1st edition, hardcover. An important title, as it is not simply an abridgement, but has been revised by Churchill with new material and there is also a whole new chapter on the Battle of the Marne, as well as a new introduction. The US edition preceeded the British, so is the true first. This single volume edition covers the same material as the first four volumes of the original six volume work. 866 pages, index, numerous maps and plans, some folding and coloured. Bound in navy cloth, gilt on spine. Good used copy in original cloth showing wear at spine ends, split starting at head of front joint, small splash marks on covers.
