Cheap edition. 384pp. Illustrated with line drawings in text. In blue cloth-covered boards with deep blue lettering to spine (boards rubbed and rounded at spine ends and corners, faded at spine tips). Text block edge tanned (as is common with these ‘cheap’ editions, produced to war economy standards). Internally some mild toning, especially at page margins, with faint foxing restricted to endpapers only. In its original rubbed, toned and worn dust jacket (lightly chipped at corners and spine tips, spine sunned, several small indentations on verso). Hewlett Johnson was a Church of England priest and a Stalinist who served as Dean of Canterbury where he acquired his nickname the Red Dean, for his unyielding support for the Soviet Union. In this volume, the Red Dean expounds on, in simple, non-technical terms, what he terms ‘the great experiment’ of in a new order of society taking place within the Soviet Union. Chapters include the Decline of Capitalism in the 19th and 20th centuries. Small 8vo.
