Tells the extraordinary story of the DPs, tracing their journey from the often chaotic camps of Europe after World War II to a new life in a land of opportunity where prejudice, parochialism,and strident anti-communism were rife. Drawing from archives, oral history interviews and literature generated by the Displaced Persons themselves, Persian investigates who they really were, why Australia wanted them and what they experienced.
