Ex-library with printed ex-libris and cancellation stamp on the first paste down. Nice copy. Ignominious German publication by a leading theologian and art-historian to diminish or outright deny the German responsability for the destruction of e.g. the Reims Cathedral, the Louvain University Library ( together with many houses) etc. . In 1933 (!) he was awarded a honorary function in the Vatican by the Pope . From 1925 till 1933 he was chancellor of the Freiburg University.
