Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 6x1x9; xxi, 504 pages: illustrations; 25 cm. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. Minor toning.

Antisemitism was regarded by German business circles with distaste as a vulgar and plebeian phenomenon, and the Nazis had to play it down. Nazi attacks on Jewish "finance capitalism" are also mentioned."-The Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism.
