Confronting Captivity: Britain and the United States and Their POWs in Nazi Germany
Arieh J. Kochavi
"Drawing on letters, diaries, and memoirs, Kochavi reconstructs the conditions in POW camps while embedding his narrative and analysis in the political and diplomatic developments of the war. Concern in London and Washington about the safety of soldiers imprisoned in enemy territory was mitigated by the recognition that the Nazi leadership - in contrast to its horrific treatment of Slavic POWs, for example - tended to adhere to the Geneva Convention when it came to British and U.S. prisoners."--BOOK JACKET.
