War is a Racket

Butler, Smedley

Verlag: Round Table Press, Inc, New York, 1935

First edition, first printing. Signed by General Smedley D. Butler on the front free endpaper. Bound in publisher's original red cloth lettered in black. Near Fine with small areas of wear to cloth at edges, light soiling and light tanning, in a Very Good+ unclipped dust jacket with light soiling, toning, edge wear and worming, light foxing to the blindside. A rediscovered antiwar classic by the (then) most highly decorated Marine in US history. One recent reprinting of the book featured essays by contemporary figures like Jessie Ventura, Cindy Sheehan, and David Talbot hailing the book. Butler also broke up a secret coup plot against FDR sometimes referred to as "The Business Plot," dismissed by the mainstream media of the time but recounted and affirmed in books such as Jules Archer's The Plot to Seize the White House.
