Simple Sabotage Field Manual by Office of Strategic Services, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. Written by the Office of Strategic Services in 1944 and declassified decades later, this manual taught ordinary citizens in occupied Europe how to quietly undermine the enemy's war effort. Alongside physical sabotage, it famously advises insisting on doing everything through channels, making long speeches and referring matters to committees. A fascinating, and surprisingly familiar, historical curiosity.
About this leather-bound edition
Each copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine. Natural variation in grain, shade and foil impression is part of the character of every handmade book, so no two copies are exactly alike.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
