An amazing hardback with slipcase edition of war images of Otto Dix from 1923 & 1924 and the Erasmus essay on war are mirrors of two men who were opposed to death due to infantile higher ups who felt all lives but their own were expendable. One was written in 1500's by Dutch philosopher and Christian scholar who is widely considered to have been one of the greatest scholars of the northern Renaissance and fifty etchings by a man who was able to capture the brutality and inhuman sights and sounds in a single image from the First World War.
