Enemy in our Midst: Germans in Britain during the First World War de Panikos Panayi

Enemy in our Midst: Germans in Britain during the First World War

Autor Panikos Panayi
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 apr 1991
With the approach of the First World War, the German community in Britain began to be assailed by a combination of government measures and popular hostility which resulted in attacks against individuals with German connections and confiscation of their property. From May 1915, a policy of wholesale internment and repatriation was to reduce the German population by more than half of its pre-war figure. The author of this study charts the growth of the German community in Britain before detailing the story of its destruction under the chauvinistic intolerance which gripped the country during the Great War.

Recenzii

... will remain a useful reference work on the subject for some time to come.
... will serve as the authoritative work on the subject for decades to come.
... a sound piece of historical research which fills a definite gap in our understanding of the British home front during the Great War, not to mention the position of aliens within British society.
