Captured by German forces shortly after Dunkirk, and not relinquished until May of 1945, the British Channel Islands (Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney, Sark, and Herm) were characterized during their occupation by severe deprivation and powerlessness. Though many historians have focused on the possibility that Islanders may have collaborated with the Germans, this eye-opening history turns to secret war diaries kept in Guernsey. What emerges comprises a stirring account of unquenchable spirit and deft improvisation.
