About this title:
Synopsis: On 23 June 1940, one week before the German invaders arrived and with just a few hours notice, the island of Alderney was evacuated of all but a handful of its 1,450 inhabitants. During its occupation Alderney became an island fortress and slave labour camp. "Alderney at War" offers the fullest account ever published of events on the island during the war, as well as an examination of the circumstances leading up to the evacuation and the subsequent fate of the refugees. Bonnard draws on both German and British official records and on the fascinating eye-witness accounts of former Russian, French and islander prisoners, as well as personal diaries and photographs taken by members of the occupying forces. "Alderney at War" is a factual record of this remarkable episode in British history, which is sure to enthrall residents and visitors to the Channel Islands, but its comprehensive coverage of those grim years guarantees it a place alongside any Second World War History.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Very slight signs of age or use to book or DJ. 1993, 6 1/4 By 9 1/2", 181 pages loaded with photos and info. Purchased from Imperial War Museum in England. Alderney at War is the most detailed account available of this remarkable episode in the history of the British Isles and takes notice of the recent disclosures of Public Record Office material and more recent release of German papers in the Guernsey Greffe office. It will have special significance for Channel Islanders and the many people who visit the islands each year, but its comprehensive coverage of those grim years guarantees it a place among more general Second World War histories.
