Illustrated by Basil Wolverton with détourned illustrations from a popularizing book of Biblical stories published by the American evangelist Garner Ted Armstrong, who broadcast on Radio Luxembourg (or Radio Caroline?) a program called "The Good News About The World Tomorrow"; and with two photographs, one of Lenin, the other of Hitler, the latter apparently at the 1933 Nuremberg Rally.
