This is famous British author Nesta Webster's last-and most suppressed-book, published just prior to the outbreak of the Second World War. Originally published as Germany and England, this book deviated completely from the themes of Webster's earlier works, and dealt exclusively with what she said was the international Jewish lobby's preparations to start another war in Europe. Plans for this war, she wrote, were not based on Germany's justifiable actions to recover from the inequities of the Treaty of Versailles, but only because Hitler's Germany had removed the Jews from all positions of influence in that country. Webster discusses in detail the UK government's hypocrisy in dealing with Germany-for example, by gunning down Arabs in British Mandated Palestine protesting against the Zionist ethnic cleansing underway there-while at the same time demanding that Germany not react with force at injustices committed upon Germans. Other topics covered in this volume include the truth behind the "Czechoslovakia Crisis," the USSR's plans to spread Communism in Europe, the differences between Bolshevism and Fascism, and the deliberate lies being spread about Hitler and Germany by the British press in their desire to incite a war. "Can it be mere coincidence that all those countries we are now taught to hate are those which have shown the strongest opposition to Bolshevism? . . . It does not matter with which of the Fascist States the quarrel is begun, the rest will come in with it and the war will indeed become world wide." This new edition has been taken directly from an original copy, and contains the complete text and all four appendices. It also includes 55 new footnotes which explain events and personalities referred to in the body of the text.

This collection of essays examines the similarities and differences between medieval England and Germany at a period of great change in almost all areas of life. It asks a number of fundamental questions which highlight the foundations of a rich common European heritage. What was it that made life in the twelfth century more varied, less peaceful, and less secure than before? How can the parellel developments, changes, and transformations that took place in Latin Europe in the High Middle Ages be related to each other? What answers were found to the challenges of the age in England and Germany? This volume gives the reader an opportunity to see how English-speaking and German scholars approach similar themes. Edited by two leading German medievalists, it includes 17 contributions by eminent scholrs from Britain, North America, and Germany. It is divided into 4 sections on modes of communication, war and peace, Christians and non-Christians, and urban and rural developments, and is essential reading for students and scholars of English or German medieval history.
