    Description

    Historic collection of important books! There are 196 rare hard cover books titled ‘League of Nations: Treaty Series’. I believe there were originally only 206 volumes published between 1920 and 1946. Missing 84, 85, 173, and #200+. In English and French. Hard covers, published by Harrison and Sons. These are pre-packed in 15 boxes.
    The League of Nations was formed shortly after WW1. It would eventually be replaced by the United Nations. If my memory is correct, a large part of World War 1 was all the secret treaties the Europeans engaged in that ended up forcing them into war. This treaty series, I believe, was meant to make all treaties (generally) public information. This grouping is a perfect selection for the diplomat, the professor, a lawyer’s bookshelf or even for the armchair historian with a particular interest in this era.
