Offered is an original World War II–era German book by Theodor Hülper, titled We get ore from Narvik. Commercial steamer “Neuenfels” breaks the mine barrier. This period publication focuses on maritime supply efforts connected to the vital iron ore routes from Narvik, a strategically important location during the war.
The work was widely read by members of the Hitler Youth and other German children of the era, reflecting the type of adventure-oriented and propagandistic literature circulated among youth in Nazi Germany. Stories like this were intended to frame wartime logistics and naval operations as heroic and instructive, offering insight into how history and conflict were presented to young readers at the time.
Today, the book stands as a historical artifact, valued not for ideology but for what it reveals about wartime culture, education, and propaganda aimed at German youth during World War II. It is well suited for collectors of WWII-era books, German history, naval-themed literature, or historical propaganda materials.
A compelling and sobering piece of period history that documents how global conflict was interpreted and conveyed to the next generation during the war.
