    About this item

    For sale is a rare publication, third edition 'Tomorrow We Live' (1938) by Oswald Mosley is the book whose style most closely resembles the emotive tone of his speeches. This is a very rare edition the (library edition) as marked in the top right hand corner. There was good reason for this: British Union, the Movement that Mosley led, was by now engaged in a life or death struggle to avert the coming War that would cost 60-million people their lives. With great clarity Mosley restates his policies that would save Britain from recurring Slump and draws the line between anti Semitism and his own necessary criticism of certain Jewish interests. Then he reminds the reader that 'Mankind has no greater enemy than War and War has no greater enemy than British Union'. He contrasts the policy of the British government, to threaten powerful nations with war whilst maintaining minimal defence forces, with his own policy, of threatening no other country but having the strongest army, navy and air force in the world. Mosley advocates that Britain should only fight if Britain is attacked. To travel round the world starting wars with other countries because we don't approve of their system of government would condemn Britain to perpetual war - there is always some country somewhere of which to disapprove. He also addresses the charge of continental influence: “We do not borrow ideas from foreign countries and we have no 'models' abroad for a plain and simple reason. We are proud enough of our own people to believe that once Britain is awake our people will not follow but will lead Mankind. In this deep faith we hold that no lesser destiny is worthy of our people than that the whole world shall find in Britain an example.”

          An extract of the this book comes from the foreword:        “FOREWORD       BOOK of thirty-four thousand words can serve the reader only as an introduction to the spirit and policy of British Union. The subject is too great to be confined in all detail within such limits of space. But the reader who inquires further Books and will discover in the publications of the British Union an amplitude of detail on every subject of the day. pamphlets by my colleagues, whose range of abilities now cover every sphere of national life, will meet any inquiry, and further detail on some topics can be found in my own books, "The Greater Britain and "100 Questions Answered."       e reader will discover, with the exception In these pages the r of the chapter on Foreign Affairs, a policy suited to the character of this country and no other. British Union in whole character is a British principle suited to Britain alone. It is true that our National Socialist and Fascist creed is universal, in different form and method, to all great countries of the modern world. That was true also in their own period of every great creed, political or religious, that our country has ever known.       The only difference in this respect between British Union and the old parties is that our creed belongs to the twentieth century, and their creeds to the past that conceived them. But a greater difference arises from the fact that National Socialism and Fascism is in essence a national doctrine which finds in each great nation a character, policy, form and method suited to each particular country. For this reason a far greater divergence will be found in the expression and method of the modern Movement in different countries than prevailed in the case of the international creeds of the past such as Liberalism and Socialism, or Conservatism, which, under various names, can be found in every country in the world.       So the reader will find in these pages a policy born only of British inspiration, and a character and method suited to Britain alone. He will be able to judge for himself our claim for British Union that in constructive conception our policy already far transcends any previous emanation of the modern Movement. We do not borrow ideas from foreign countries and we have no "models" abroad for a plain and simple reason. We are proud enough of our own people to believe that once Britain is awake our people will not follow, but will lead mankind. In this deep faith we hold that no lesser destiny is worthy of the British people than that the whole world shall find in Britain an example. The aim of British Union is no less than this.       O.M.”       This will be sent via Royal Mail special delivery and dispatched within two working days.
