HEAVILY ILLUSTRATED COMPREHENSIVE 1934 NAZI RACIAL THEORY BOOK

Rassenkunde des deutschen Volkes (Ethnology of the German Nation)

J.F. Lehmanns Verlag in München is widely recognized today as the most prominent publisher of scholarly Nazi publications stressing their theories on matters of race, racial hygiene, the Jewish Problem, etc., in Third Reich Germany, as contrasted to upstart publishers like Julius Streicher and Stürmer Verlag in Nürnberg which took a far more sensationalist position on those subjects.

The big, heavy 6-1/2 x 9 inch, 528 page book is printed on fine glossy paper and contains over 600 photographs, illustrations, maps and charts which are said to very precisely identify and describe the racial specifics of the many different groups to be found in Germany, including dwarfs, twins, throw-backs, Jews, mixed-blood and other peoples. The emphasis is squarely on the high-value Aryan populations and the liability of the others.

While the linen hardcovers show wear, the glossy pages are in very good condition. The book has no odor.

This is the rare, heavily illustrated 1934 linen hardcover edition of Rassenkunde des deutschen Volkes (Ethnology of the German Nation) by noted Professor Dr. Hans F.K. Günther of Berlin. Günther was a German race researcher and eugenicist, sometimes referred to as the Rassenpabst or Race Pope of Third Reich Germany.

Other maps in this book compare racial body sizes,
face and skull features in Europe.

This is a nice used 90 year old example of Rassenkunde des deutschen Volkes. A round Nazi eagle and swastika rubber stamp on the title page shows it was part of the library of the Gau Führerschule of NSDAP Gau Hessen-Nassau. Nazi Party Gauführerschule were educational facilities set up especially for political and ideological development of future leaders, which apparently also included teaching racial matters. The remains of a library number label is still attached to the top of the spine as well.
