The subtitle of Mussolini in Deutschland translates as "National Demonstration of Peace during the Days of 25 - 29 September 1937".
The author of this rare book, Dr. Fred C. Willis, was Ministerialreferent, a very high-ranking employee at Dr. Joseph Goebbels' Reichsministerium für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda (State Ministry for National Community Clarification and Publicity) in Berlin.

The book starts with a foreword about the two statesmen by Dr. Goebbels which is followed by a short text about Benito Mussolini's visit to Germany, excerpts from speeches, the text of an award which made Hitler an honorary Corporal of the Italian Militia, even the special Deutsche Reichspost cancelation stamp designed for the Staatstreffen Mussolini-Hitler.
