One of the most moving and tragic diaspora stories of WWII,
"Slovenia 1945" follows the fate of a strongly Catholic and
non-Communist community in Slovenia, including members of the
anti-Communist Home Guard 'domobranci', caught up in the maelstrom
of war and politics in the Balkans in WWII and the problems of the
post-war settlement. Thousands were returned to face death and
exile at the hands of their war-time enemies - Tito's Partisans -
who had triumphed by the war's end. Yet the story of exile is also
one of triumph as the surviving refugees built new lives in
Argentina, the USA, Canada and Britain. The authors call on more
than half a century of research and an unsurpassed knowledge of the
Slovene migrant communities around the world to tell their stories.
'Very valuable...extremely interesting...the material is absolutely
fascinating and historically very important' - Dr Barbara
Harrell-Bond, Founder-Director, University of Oxford Refugee
Studies Centre.
