The World Crisis, Six Volumes. Title: The World Crisis, Six Volumes Publication: Thornton Butter worth Limited, London, 1923 Edition: 1st Edition. Very Good / Very Good. Volume 3 is INSCRIBED by Churchill on a front free end paper to Kenneth Dewar, who was a prominent and controversial figure in the British navy as well as a top adviser to Churchill. From Wikipedia --Churchill wrote an anti-Jellicoe tract in his World Crisis, Volume III which in large measure shared Dewar's views on tactics and even some diagrams.

I had hoped you would go to the Admiralty and do very necessary work for the Navy. Volume 4 is annotated by Dewar with some fascinating comments on Churchill's version of events in which he had personal knowledge. Books and dust jackets are all correct firsts.

Books are all generally in very good condition with some wear and soiling, and some volumes have darkening on front free end papers. Dust jackets are in very good condition, some wear and tanning; vol. 4 is in fair condition with flaps detached from panels, pieces missing, spine from other dust jacket; vol. 6 has a closed tear on spine from top to almost bottom.
