I bought a few used books recently, and was wondering if any anons here are familiar with them and have anything to say.

"The Barbarian West" by J.M. Wallace-Hadbill

Mr. Hadbill is not a jew as far as I can tell, and this book was written in 1952, so I figured it a safe bet for some unkiked history. In the book he argues that the barbarians were actually in admiration of the Roman empire, rather than despising it, as is often touted, so arguing that whites look on in favor of other whites seems like a pretty non-kosher view, as well.

"A History of Transylvania" by Stefan Pascu

The version I have is an abridged translation to English, but I thought that, even so, a some history written by a Romanian would be interesting. Unfortunately, reading reviews, I've discovered the book has a particularly marxist tint due to the environment it was produced under, so it must be read with that in mind. Furthermore, apparently the "facts" between Romanian and Hungarian historians differ greatly, so I'm going to need to read something along with this to make up my mind. Perhaps someone can offer another book to contrast.

"Five Years, Four Fronts" by Georg Grossjohann

This one is a combat memoir by a German officer in WW2. Thought it would be cool to get one of the rare first-hand peeks at the German side of things. I should really learn German, though, so I can stop relying on (((translations))).
