From the dust jacket: "When Hitler became Chancellor, [Zipper] hastened back to Vienna where he composed music for the underground cabarets of the day. In 1938, after the Anschluss, he was sent to Dachau, transferred to Buchenwald (1939) where his survival stories are remarkable. These stories include the formation at Dachau of a secret orchestra for which he conducted and composed music and gave clandestine concerts in an abandoned latrine… Throughout his remarkable journey, Zipper, a composer, conductor, concentration camp survivor, and educator, has maintained a spirit of hope and achievement which contradicts his experiences. This is a story of the triumph of human will and spirit and as such, is both inspiring and instructive." . First Edition in English. Hardcover. Fine condition/Fine dust jacket. 8vo. xiii, 308pp. + 16 pages of photos.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail-order catalogues, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you wish to visit us to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
