Jews and Other Foreigners - Manchester and the Rescue of the Victims of European Fascism, 1933-40 (Hardcover)

Drawing on a wide range documentary and oral sources, including interviews with refugees, this book explores the responses in Manchester to those threatened by the rise of Fascism in Europe. The book has been written with the general reader in mind, but it will be of particular interest to those studying Britain's attitudes to immigrants and refugees, the history of the British Jewish community, the role of Zionism during the Second World War, the role of philanthropy and the Christian churches in Manchester society and issues surrounding the settlement and acculturation of newcomers to British society. Bill Williams is an Honorary Fellow of the Centre for Jewish Studies, University of Manchester
