    Flea market find, today.....

    Hello, all....
    I found this at a local garage sale/flea market today. I'm hoping that someone can tell me something about it. It's 9 1/2 inches by 8 1/2 inches, 98 pages, with text, B&W and color photos, published in 1943 and seems to be a collection of important dates and events in the Party history.
    Any info is welcome....

    Cheers,
    Bob.

    The title is "I fight" or "I struggle" (in the sense of struggling to achieve a goal).

    Pflichten ... is "Requirements (or duties) of the party member".

    It's a propaganda book, of course, designed to stir emotions to support The Fuehrer.

      The author of this book is Hermann Liese. It was published 1943 in Munich and

      normally in a special edition for new NSDAP party members.

      One edition special was made for the 10th anniversary of the 30 Jan 1933.

      You can buy it in Germany second-hand today for about 40,-- to 95,-- €.

        Thanks to all for the info, although I should've been less lazy, and Googled it first...
        Researching it online, I find that there are a number of dealers selling the 1943 reprint for an average price of 250.00 US.
        It is stated that the Allies considered this book "so dangerous that nearly all copies of this book were destroyed by Allied De-Nazification Commissions at the end of World War II."

        I'm happy that the Allies missed this one and that it found its way to me....

        Thanks again,
        Bob.
