Several volumes either annotated or written by Field Marshal Hermann Goering and disclosing the Nazi leader’s interest in anti-Semitism will be included in a three-day auction of valuable books, it was reported today by Reynolds News.
One of the Goering books, “The Secrets of the Elders of Zion,” contains many annotations in Goering’s hand and bears his signature on the cover. Another signed and annotated Goering volume is “Bolshevism From Moses to Lenin–a Discussion Between Hitler and Myself.”
Commenting, the paper states: “It is not surprising that Goering, who like many other Nazi leaders has enriched himself by plundering his Jewish victims, should have taken a great interest in these books.”
