The Black Book

The Britons on the Nazi Hit List

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Prominent members of the establishment were identified for suppression by the Gestapo upon invasion, as were activists, academics, artists and writers, more than half of whom were refugees from Europe. Sybil Oldfield's study reveals how the list sheds light on German attitudes at the time, and identifies a cast of unsung heroes, including well known figures such as Virginia Woolf and Bertrand Russell, whose work had earned the disapproval of the Nazis.
