Belgium [ with an Interesting Inscription by the Author]

Original burgandy cloth; black spine label lettered in gilt; map endpapers; frontis and over 50 full page Illustrations from photographs, most of buildings and architectural detail. Inscribed on half-title: "To Mrs. Stimson - With hopes Hitler will leave all this for us to see again -, Hugh Gibson, Seattle, February 15, 1940." Would that it was the wife of Henry L. Stimson, United States Secretary of War in 1940, but Stimson was also a prominent family name in Seattle and thus more likely addressed to a relation there. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 347 pages; Signed by Author
