Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. This book is an account of Dr Junod's experiences between 1935 and 1945 on missions which took him first to Abyssinia and air raids with mustard gas bombs, then to Spain, Poland, Germany and lastly to Japan, where he was one of the first foreign doctors to observe the horrific effects of the atom bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Through Dr Junod's narrative, the reader discovers the difficult and sometimes dangerous, but always fascinating, work of an International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) delegate. The book has been read, but is in good condition for its age. Some bumps and creases are evident on the boards e.g. scuff marks, but no holes or tears. Binding has minimal wear. Spine is slightly worn. The pages are undamaged but may have some slight creasing but this is negligible. The interior is sunned and there is some foxing to some pages. There is an owner inscription.
