During the First World War, hundreds of thousands of Germans faced
incarceration in hundreds of camps on the British mainland. This is
the first book on these German prisoners, available in paperback,
almost a century after the conflict. The book covers the three
different types of internees in Britain in the form of: civilians
already present in the country in August 1914; civilians brought to
Britain from all over the world; and combatants. Using a vast range
of contemporary British and German sources, the volume traces life
experiences through initial arrest and capture, to life behind
barbed wire, to return to Germany or to the remnants of the
ethnically cleansed German community in Britain. The book will
prove essential reading for anyone interested in the history of
prisoners of war or the First World War and will also appeal to
scholars and students of twentieth-century Europe and the human
consequences of war. -- .
