Between 1933 and the outbreak of war in 1939, over 60,000 Jewish
refugees fled to Britain from Germany, Austria, and Czechoslovakia.
Some 50,000 settled there. No previous historical study of this
group of immigrants exists, though they form one of the most
high-profile groups of refugees to have come to Britain in the 20th
century, both as survivors of the Nazi terror and as high-achieving
contributors to British society. This book - now available in
paperback - focuses on the first quarter-century of these Jewish
refugees' settlement in Britain. It covers new ground by drawing on
a rich source of contemporary material: the previously untapped
monthly journal of the Association of Jewish Refugees - AJR
Information. The journal is the only contemporary source that
provides material for a full-scale history of these refugees when
they established themselves permanently in Britain, as well as how
they adapted to British society and developed their distinctive
'Continental' identity and culture that characterized them in their
adopted homeland.
