With firsthand sources and archeological research, this study explores life inside Nazi prisons during the occupation of the Channel Islands.Through most of the Second World War, Nazis occupied the Bailiwicks of Jersey and Guernsey, two British Crown dependencies in the English Channel. With extensive research, archeologist Gilly Carr has uncovered the enduring legacies of this occupation. In Nazi Prisons in Britain, she shines a light on the lives of citizen resisters who became political prisoners on their own soil. Carr explores political prisoner consciousness and solidarity through the letters of the "Jersey 21" and the diaries of Frank Falla, Guernsey’s best-known resister. Drawing on memoirs, poetry, graffiti, official archives, and material culture-as well as the words of war criminals, traitors, surrealist artists, and many others-she reveals what life was like inside these brutal Nazi prisons.
