The volume is signed by General Nikolaos Spyropoulos, brother of Georgios Tsolakoglou, the controversial Greek general and Prime Minister during the Axis occupation of Greece.

A significant and collectible piece of Greek military and political history, especially relevant to the study of interwar Europe, ideological warfare, and anti-communist propaganda.
