Title: Barbed wire diplomacy
Description: "Expanding our understanding of both the formulation and execution of POW policy in both capitals, the book sheds new light on the dynamics in inter-belligerent relations during the war. It suggests that while the Second World War should be rightly acknowledged as a conflict in which traditional constraints were routinely abandoned in the pursuit of political, strategic, and ideological goals, in this important area of Anglo-German relations, customary international norms were both resilient and effective." --Book Jacket.
