An Bord des Kriegschiffs Schlesien bei Ausbruch der Revolution

Waldeyer-Harts, von: 1919 Berlin, softcover 39 pages. Written by the ship's commander Hugo von Waldeyer-Hartz, this 1919 firsthand account documents the dramatic events aboard the battleship SMS Schlesien during the outbreak of the November 1918 German Revolution. The narrative details how the loyal remnants of the crew and young midshipmen managed to navigate the vessel through the Baltic Sea to escape the spreading sailor mutinies. The booklet has a loose front cover and the back cover is missing; nevertheless, it is a very rare edition.
