Smith (the largest single book retailer in Great Britain) announced its plans to move to a computerized warehouse in 1967 and wanted a standard numbering system for books it carried.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. SACHS, Maurice. Autobiography (2 vols.); Witches' Sabbath and The Hunt. London: Jonathan Cape / Calder and Boyers & Sidgwick and Jackson, 1965-1967. First UK Editions Thus. I: Very Good+ / Very Good+ | II: Very Good+ / Very Good+. FIRST UK EDITIONS THUS. Sachs was born Maurice Ettinghausen, the son of jewelers, and became one of the most disreputable figures of the French literary world. He died in 1945, just before the war ended, in German captivity. Together these two volumes are his autobiography. An abridged account of his turbulent youth appeared from Arthur Barker in 1935 as Day of Wrath. The unexpurgated text did not reach Britain until 1965, as Witches' Sabbath (Stein & Day had issued it in America the year before). The Hunt followed in 1967; the publisher called it a continuation, though it was left unfinished. Witches' Sabbath first appeared in Paris in 1946 as Le Sabbat; The Hunt as La Chasse à courre in 1949. Witches' Sabbath records Sachs's mostly failed exploits, among them a Paris publishing house where he claims to have been given an advance copy of All Quiet on the Western Front, which then sat unread on his desk for months, "during which I had neither the curiosity nor the presence of mind to have it read by someone who knew German." The Hunt picks up under the Occupation. Sachs withdraws to Normandy, deals on the black market while living with Violette Leduc (thinly disguised as "Pomme"), then moves to Hamburg and begins to work with the Germans and the Gestapo. He remains oddly little known for a man so deep in 1920s French society and so flexible in his wartime morals. The books are not common, but often wrongfully cheap; nevertheless, these are unusually bright copies.
