'To get a refusal would result in an unfortunate loss of prestige': the Czechoslovak government-in-exile and the Holocaust

Examines the response of the Czechoslovak government-in-exile to the persecution of the Jews of Europe during World War II. Focuses on the diplomatic negotiations between the Czechoslovak authorities and International Jewish organisations. Argues that knowledge of the Jewish persecution was on occasion suppressed so as not to overshadow the suffering of the Czechoslovaks.
