"Wyman's book is the only one that comprehensively, and sensitively, depicts the plight of the postwar refugees in Western Europe."—M. Mark Stolarik, University of Ottawa "This is a fascinating and very moving book."—International Migration Review...

Mark Wyman is Professor of History at Illinois State University. He is the author of Round-Trip to America: The Immigrants Return to Europe, 1880-1930, also from Cornell.

Wyman interviewed some eighty DPs as well as employees of various agencies who served them; he cites a broad range of published primary sources, secondary sources, and some archival material.... This book presents a useful overview and should stimulate further research.

This is a fascinating and very moving book.
