During World War II, London was transformed into a European city,
as it unexpectedly became a place of refuge for many thousands of
European citizens who through choice or the accidents of war found
themselves seeking refuge in Britain from the military campaigns on
the Continent of Europe. In this volume, an international team of
historians consider the exile groups from Belgium, France, the
Netherlands, Poland, Norway and Czechoslovakia, analysing not
merely the relations between the plethora of exile regimes and the
British government in terms of its military and social dimensions
but also the legacy of this period of exile for the politics of
post-war Europe. Particular attention is paid to the Belgian
exiles, the most numerous exile population in Britain during World
War II.
