This book examines attitudes towards German held captive in
Britain, drawing on original archival material including newspaper
and newsreel content, diaries, sociological surveys and opinion
polls, as well as official documentation and the archives of
pressure groups and protest movements. Moving beyond conventional
assessments of POW treatment which have focused on the development
of policy, diplomatic relations, and the experience of the POWs
themselves, this study refocuses the debate onto the attitude of
the British public towards the standard of treatment of German
POWs. In so doing, it reveals that the issue of POW treatment
intersected with discussions of state power, human rights, gender
relations, civility, and national character.
