Title

1916 WWI Propaganda Book Hindenburg’s March into London German War Fiction

Description

World War I–era propaganda and speculative war fiction titled Hindenburg’s March into London, translated from the German and published in 1916 by The John C. Winston Company, Philadelphia. The book imagines a German invasion of Britain led by Paul von Hindenburg, reflecting wartime nationalism, militarism, and the psychology of the German war effort as perceived by Allied audiences.

Edited by Logan Marshall with a preface by L. G. Redmond-Howard, the book was widely promoted at the time as revealing the “German mind” and was marketed aggressively in both Europe and the United States. It blends fictionalized battle narratives with ideological messaging and serves as a vivid example of early 20th-century wartime publishing and psychological warfare.

Softcover format with illustrated original paper covers, including period advertising referencing large German sales figures.

Measures approximately 7.5 x 5 inches. 220 pages. All pages present.
