Description:... Though the contributions of exiles to the US from Nazi Germany are well documented, British and Irish writer Ambrose found little analogous work concerning Britain, and begins to fill the gap by profiling selected people who influenced both countries. He also highlights the work of American Varian Fry, who helped many people out of Vichy France in order to preserve European art. He does not index subjects.
