Morton, Frederic: Thunder At Twilight, Vienna 1913/1914
NY: Charles Scribner's Sons. Very Good 1989. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Trade Paperback. 385 pages; Very Good condition. No creases. Just a bit of shelf rub to spine tips and corner tips. Solid, clean. In July 1916, Fritz Mandelbaum, a junior officer in Austria's Seventh Army on the Russian front near the river Dnjestr, was shot in the abdomen and died shortly thereafter. Twenty four years later the name suffered erasure again. This time it was borne by a refugee boy arriving in New York in 1940. His father changed the family's name. Fritz Mandelbaum became Frederic Morton. The present book deals with the events, ideas, unpredictabilities and inevitabilities surrounding the death of the next Crown Prince, Archduke Franz Ferdinand. It set off the dynamics leading the World War II. .

We ask 2 things in regards to this policy: 1) That you notify us that you are returning an item (so that we know to expect it); and 2) that you repackage the item in the same manner as it arrived.
