Muerte al Invasor, Cronicas de Guerra, 1941-1943
Mexico City: Ediciones La Lucha de la Juventud, 1943. First edition. Paperback. 1943, First Edition, Spanish text. Softcover. 509 pp. Two page prologue by Pablo Neruda. Inscribed on the half-title by Jose Renau, the 'Caratula exterior' of La Lucha de la Juventud. Illustrated throughout with reproductions of images of Russia, WW II politicians, battle scenes and a striking woodcut portrait of Ehrenburg by L. Mendez. A Fair copy. LACKS front wrap; chipping to top edge of spine; paper age-toned, but not brittle. Clean interior. A rare book -- OCLC locates only 5 copies -- and it doesn't seem to have a corresponding edition in either English or Russian. Neruda was a diplomat in Mexico up to 1943, which helps explain his inclusion in this project. Fair. Item #0086609
