PECULIAR OCCUPATION:
New Perspectives on Hitler's Channel Islands
by Peter Tabb
£19.99
hardback + £3.20 postage
to U.K.
ISBN 0711031134
Apart from the propaganda value of their occupation from October 1941, the Channel Islands were to form part of Hitler's supposedly impregnable Atlantic Wall. For three and a half years, the islanders suffered deportation, deprivation, epidemics, imprisonment and, ultimately, near-starvation. Written by a Channel Islander, this is a remarkable testament to the triumph of the human spirit over evil and the survival of a quintessentially British way of life under the Nazi jackboot.
