Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

While the wartime activities of Polish and Czechoslovak émigrés in Britain have been examined in numerous English language publications, no similar publications have appeared to date about the Hungarian émigrés. These Hungarians were as anti-Nazi as the exiles of other East Central European countries, but they happened to be from a land that, until 1944, had been an ally of Germany and not its victim. For this reason, the Hungarian émigrés never gained the kind of sympathy their hosts had toward the Poles and the Czechoslovaks.
