To avoid repetition, we mention them here: Six volume editions: 1: The Gathering Storm, 2: Their First Hour, 3: The Grand Alliance, 4: The Hinge of Fate, 5: Closing the Ring, 6: Triumph and Tragedy. Twelve volume editions were made by dividing the above into their components, subtitled "Book One" and "Book Two" within the original six volumes: 1: From War to War, 1919-1939, 2: The Twilight War, September 3, 1939 — May 10, 1940, 3: The Fall of France, 4: Alone, 5: Germany Drives East, 6: War Comes to America, 7: The Onslaught of Japan, 8: Africa Redeemed, 9: Italy Won, 10: Teheran to Rome, 11: The Tide of Victory, 12: The Iron Curtain. Foreign language editions follow the above formats with two exceptions: the three-volume Belgian French edition combines Volumes 1 &2,3 &4 and 5 & 6 of the six-volume work; the ten-volume Dutch edition combines Volumes 3&4 and 9&.10 of the twelve-volume work. (The Russian edition, though only six volumes, is comprised of Volumes 1-6 of the twelve volume work; others were unpublished.)
A123 THE SECOND WORLD WAR All editions are of six volumes unless otherwise stated. »A123(a) The First Edition (1948-53) A123(aa) The Trade Issue A123(ab) The Book-of-the-Month Club Issue A123(ac) The Canadian Issue A123(ad) The Houghton Mifflin Paperback Issue (1989-) Published in Boston by the Houghton Mifflin Co. in cooperation with the Book-of-the-Month Club, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, and simultaneously in Canada by Thomas Allen, Toronto. The Trade Issue is usually bound in brick red cloth with headbands and yellow stained top page edges. The BOMC Issue is usually bound in pink cloth lacking both headbands and page edge staining. The Canadian Issue is bound in deep red cloth and labeled "Thomas Allen" on the spines. Four different manufacturers were involved in the American issues. First edition dust jackets bear the price $6.00 on front flaps; this was raised to $6.50 and above after the first editions. BOMC jackets do not contain prices but spines usually carry stock numbers. Reference: Finest Hour #75. »A123(b) English Edition (Cassell 1948-53) A123(ba) The Home Issue A123(bb) The Australian Issue (Melbourne) A123(bc) The Overseas Issue All issues bound in black cloth, with identical design dust jackets using a repeat "WSC" pattern, though the Australian issues are distinctly thicker. Though it was thought previously that Volume 6 was not published in Australia, this is incorrect: Melbourne produced the full set. A123(bc) is identical to A123(ba) except for the legend, "Overseas Edition" replacing the 301 price on front jacket flap. Many later British editions and impressions have since been produced; see Woods Appendix I for some details. »A123(c) The Abridged One Volume Edition A123(ca) The Home Issue (Cassell 1959) A123(ca.l-5) at least five impressions A123(cb) The American Issue (Boston: HM Co. 1959) A123(cc) The Second American Issue (NY: Bonanza 1978) A123(cc.l-3): at least three impressions •A123(d) The Fitst Chartwell Edition (Educational Book Company Ltd., 1954) The first illustrated edition, completely reset and incorporating all author corrections.

A123(ob) The Book-of-the-Month Club Issue Luxurious quarter blue leather and tan linen cloth with WSC's painting of Chartwell tipped onto front boards. Undertaken as a premium for BOMC, whose issue has rust stained top page edges and the usual debossed "dot" on lower right rear boards; the trade edition, very scarce, has no "dot" and yellow stained top page edges. It was listed at $295, against only $35 for the BOMC issue to new members of the BOMC. Sheets were reprinted from A123(a). •A123(p) The Penguin Paperback Edition A123(pa.l-) Numerous impressions to date. In print. A123(pb) Book Club edition Both sets were boxed; the Book Club edition did not display prices on book wrappers. •A123(q) The Easton Press Edition (Norwalk: 1989) Taken from the Houghton Mifflin sheets with no textual alterations, bound in black pigskin with red spine labels blocked gilt. •A123(e) The Reprint Society Edition (1954-56) Reset in smaller type with author corrections, bound in white cloth with gilt on maroon spine labels. Completion of this set in 1956 occasioned issue of a large scale folding map, boxed, showing WSC's wartime journeys and entitled "Dunkirk to Berlin." Several impressions. •A123(f) The Time-Life Edition (NY: 2 vols, 1959) Elaborately illustrated from Life magazine's serialized war memoirs; quarto volumes supplied in slipcase with a record containing wartime speech excerpts. 1.11 (rev.
