This volume fills an important gap in research on the refugees from Nazism who settled in Britain, by giving a full and wide-ranging account of the organisations that they established. The contributions cover these organisations chronologically, from those that did not outlast the war to those still active today, and in terms of their function, as cultural or religious institutions, as historical resources for the study of Nazism and the refugees, or as all-purpose representative refugee associations. Any scholar or student working in this field needs to have an understanding of the organisations that were and are so characteristic of the refugee community.
The personal writings of a remarkable couple who lived parallel lives during the Second World War, surviving persecution and exile.
From a lonely childhood spent in rural Canada, idealistic Ann Morgan goes in search of her own identity as a young woman. In the mid-1950s she embarks on a trek that takes her to Asia as an employee of UNICEF in Bangkok and a British Intelligence Agency in Singapore. Her travels take her to Thailand, India, Burma, Indonesia, South Vietnam, Borneo, Malaya and other exotic locales, where she makes a contribution to reduce poverty and disease, as well as exposing subversive and illegal activities. Ann's adventures include treating a child with yaws, uncovering a smuggling ring, communing with Mt. Kanchenjunga near Mt. Everest, and riding local transportation. They also include an episode with a cobra and a meeting with a "bandit" in the Cambodian jungle. Ann gains insights into Asian culture, finds friendship, and in Bangkok has a brief love affair with an American doctor. She gradually discovers that she is a strong and independent young woman. Ann has found the rain for her roots. "With her painterly prose Naomi takes us down crowded urban streets and into the jungle, introducing us to exotic lands and fascinating people as she weaves her magical tales."-Lee Freehling, Librarian

This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Edition includes a glossary and reader's notes to help the modern reader contend with Twain's language, allusions, and deliberate misstatements and malapropisms.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain's sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, became an instant success in the year of its publication, 1884, but was seen by some as unfit for children to read because of its language, grammar, and "uncivilized hero." The book has sparked controversy ever since, but most scholars continue to praise it as a modern masterpiece, an essential read, and one of the greatest novels in all of American literature.Twain's satiric treatment of racism, religious excess, and rural simplicity and his accuracy in presenting dialects mark Huck Finn as a classic. His unswerving confidence in Huck's wisdom and maturity, along with the well-rounded and sympathetic portrayal of Jim draw readers into the book, holding them until Huck's last words rejecting all attempts to "sivilize" him.
