* With a preface and side-notes in English. Telders was a legal
scholar who, in an article published in 1940, called for publication
of an extract of those sections of Grotius’ classic De Iure Belli
Ac Pacis that relate specifically to international law. He
fulfilled this request personally in the German concentration camp
at Bergen-Belsen, where he was imprisoned on December 20, 1940.
Until his death there on April 6, 1945, he culled and annotated this
excerpt, often by matchlight. His manuscript was found by one of his
students and later edited and published.

* “The author brings into his discussion the views of European
writers and the notions of European jurists sufficiently to give the
book something of an independent position among the many treatises
on the state. Particularly is the book of interest and aid to
students of international law.... Of special significance, it
appears to the reviewer, are the discussions of the nature of the
state, the presidential republic, the corporate state, the question
of judicial significance, and some of the sections on state organs.
(...) The book deserves a wide reading.”: Charles E. Martin,
