483 pages, plus x index. The black boards are very lightly rubbed with a very small chip on the front board's outer edge and the fore edge lightlly foxed. There is a tiny stain on the title page mirrored on the verso of the half title page; the blank section of the head suffers from almost imperceptible damp staining. Overall a clean, unmarked and solid copy with very minor faults. 'Berlin Diary ("The Journal of a Foreign Correspondent 1934-1941") is a first-hand account of the rise of Nazi Germany and its road to war, as witnessed by the American journalist William L. Shirer. Shirer covered Germany for several years as a radio reporter for CBS. Feeling increasingly uncomfortable as the Nazi press censors made it impossible for him to report objectively to his listeners in the United States, Shirer eventually left the country."
