Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : No Dust Jacket. Illustrated by Fenck, Hugo (illustrateur). Reprint. "The first sequel the literary world knows to Spengler's monumental The Decline of the West. Presents unique and almost esoteric political, social and historical definitions and explanations which shall become more widely known - indeed, commonly understood - if our West survives. The first comprehensive and profoundly constructive alternative to the Marxist-liberal degeneracy surrounding us. In Imperium a creative genius has given the world something new: a fourth dimension of intellect and a new concept of spirituality.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : No Dust Jacket. First Edition. "This book is different from other books. First of all, it is only in form a book at all. In reality it is a part of the life of action. It is a turning-point in European history, a late turning-point, but a real one. This book is itself the first blow in the gigantic war for the liberation of Europe. The prime enemy is the traitor within Europe, who alone makes possible the starving and looting of Europe by the outer forces. He is the symbol of Chaos and Death. Between him and the spirit of the twentieth century is unremitting war." - Foreword. "The spectacle of [Yockey, 1917-1960] being persecuted, framed and driven to his death simply because he wrote [this] book is not one we would expect to see in the Twentieth Century in the land of the free and the home of the brave." - Willis Carto.

First edition. First edition, first printing. Signed by Francis Parker Yockey under his Norse-influenced pen name at the front free endpaper of each volume; first volume inscribed to former owner, "a good colonial," and dated Sept. 18, 1950. [xii], iv, 405, [3]; [viii], 280 pp. Complete in two volumes, the first bound in publisher's tan cloth lettered in black, front board stamped in blind; the second bound in black cloth lettered in gilt, front board stamped in blind. Fine with typical toning to contents in Very Good+ unsophisticated dust jackets, spines foxed, a few small tears and chips. One of a reputed limitation of only 200 sets, rarely found with jackets, and scarce as hen's teeth signed by this international "man of mystery" who spent his life accumulating aliases and passports, and dodging the FBI. An infamous rarity amongst collectors of extremist literature, self-published, dubbed "America's Mein Kampf" by Anthony Mostrom in the Los Angeles Review of Books. It is perhaps the most theoretically-complex and oft-cited fascist work published after WWII, taking a page from Oswald Spengler more than Hitler. The author, an American who had spent years traveling the globe as a sort of roving representative of the underground Fourth Reich, would briefly make headlines in 1960 when he was arrested in San Francisco by the FBI and took a cyanide pill while in prison, ending his own life a la Hermann Goring. His dalliances with the Soviet Union were no doubt largely the basis of the FBI's interest. As per Imperium Yockey believed in a sort of pan-Europeanism that included the USSR, and is believed to have been actively aiding the Soviets in a sort of sub rosa red/brown alliance against the USA at the height of the Cold War. Imperium was brought back into print in 1962 and has remained so to this day.
