Beskrivelse
From 1940 to 1945, the Channel Islands were the only part of Britain to fall under German Occupation. Explores how local lawyers, judges and government officials among others, co-operated with the implementation of legal measures against the Islands' Jews and their property, even while continuing to swear oaths of allegiance to the British Crown. Also examines the ways in which the collective memory in the Islands has ignored and obfuscated the fate of the Jews.
