Seller's Description:
Good in fair dust jacket. Signed by previous owner. DJ has some wear and soiling, edge tears and chips. Pencil erasure residue on fep. 206 p. 20 cm. This second edition was made necessary principally because many of the predictions contained in the first edition had come true, and were now accomplished facts. In addition to changes in verb tense, there were also changes made to clarify the subject and to bring the work up to date. A significant portion of the predictions concerning Poland, on pages 125-127 had not been changed. The author interviewed more than two thousand while completing a world tour in 1937 during which he visited more than 200 cities. The author stated that he had never attended a Commuhist, Socialist, Fascist, or Nazi meeting, nor had he read a single line of the standard works on those subjects, in an attempt to write from a viewpoint of a totally unbiased observer. Whle not predicting a surprise attack at Pearl Harbot, Seely opined that we could not hope to defeat Japan quickly and that the first thing that would happen after war commenced would be a crushing defeat of our militry forced in the Far East and that our Asiatic Fleet would be sunk, captured, or otherwise put out of action almost immediately. He then predicted that the Japanese would take over all our possessions in the Far East, including the Philippines and Guam (p. 161). While he was reluctant for the United States to confront Japan he did believe that the United States, without Allied help, could 'probably' defeat Japan but that the logistical challenges would be great. Lieut. Comdr. Charles S. Seely, 77, USN (ret. ), died Thursday, October 9, 1969 at his home at Rapidan. World traveler and author, he had recently returned from a four months tour of Africa. Military rites were conducted by American Legion Post 156 and V.F.W. Post 2217 of Orange. Comdr. Seely was born June 16, 1892 at St. Just, son of the late Joseph and Sallie Hillman Seely. A veteran of World War I, he retired from the Navy in 1934 and devoted his time to travel and writing books on philosophy. He was listed in Who s Who in America.
