A Damascene dagger, heavily embossed in silver, served as a letter opener, and on the bookshelves five camels stretched their wood-carved, haughty heads. I learned something about Springer when I discovered, directly below the wood-carved caravan, the titles in his library.
There were Mein Kampf, a Manual for the Use of Arms, a Handbook for Prospective Merchants, and a variety of travel and war stories about North Africa , and also the Reibert, the notorious drill manual used in all German barracks squares by army instructions.
