Inhaltsangabe

British Policy and the Refugees makes an important contribution to a little
known page of wartime history. Mary Johnstone, New Times June 1998
Jewish Book World
"An important addition to the literature on refugees."
Labour Research, Nov 97
"It provides a uniquely close-up view of what took place, but was, through
the ensuing years, rejected by one publisher after another. Now at last it
has appeared. Better late than never."
"A contemporary, inside and expert analysis of the treatment of and
attitude to "political" and "racial" refugees in Britiain at the start of
the war. It makes a valuable contribution both to the history of refugee
policy at the time, as well as to an understanding of the overall
development (or lack of development) of British attitudes over time to
refugees, foreigners and Jews. These pages, written more than fifty years
ago, bear witness to how little policy and rhetoric have changed in the
intervening time, in a way no modern writer could hope to.
