'Oldfield's thoroughly researched and fascinating historical
biography explores the lives of many of the 2,600 citizens who
attracted Hitler's ire, ranging from high-profile entertainers and
writers to those naturalised refugees who doggedly resisted the
Nazis from afar' - Observer In 1939, the Gestapo created a list of
names: the Britons whose removal would be the Nazis' priority in
the event of a successful invasion. Who were they? What had they
done to provoke Germany? For the first time, the historian Sybil
Oldfield uncovers their stories and reveals why the Nazis feared
their influence. Those on the hitlist - many of them naturalised
refugees - were some of Britain's most gifted and humane
inhabitants. They included writers, humanitarians, religious
leaders, scientists, artists, and social reformers. By examining
these targets of Nazi hatred, Oldfield not only sheds light on the
Gestapo worldview but also movingly reveals a network of truly
exemplary Britons: mavericks, moral visionaries and unsung heroes.
