Description: Gdansk is German Very rare photo book in high quality photo gravure printing on the annexation of Danzig (Gdansk) !! As a result of the Versailles treaty after World War I, Danzig (Gdansk) became a free city under the protection of the League of Nations. Its predominantly German population had no right of self-deter-mination in a referendum as in other disputed parts of the former German Empire. When Poland regained its independence after WW I, the Poles hoped to regain the city to provide the free access to the sea which they had been promised by the Allies on the basis of Woodrow Wilson's "Fourteen Points". However, since the population of the city was predominantly German, it was not placed under Polish sovereignty, but became the Free City of Danzig, an independent quasi-state under the auspices of the League of Nations, governed by its predominantly German residents but with its external affairs largely under Polish control. After Poland had surrendered Danzig became part of the German Third Reich again, at least for the next 5-1/2 years. After the Third Reich had ended Danzig became once and for all part of Poland.
