The British in Interwar Germany analyses the British presence in
Germany from the armistice until the end of the Rhineland occupation
in 1930. It looks at British involvement in the Rhineland, Danzig,
Upper Silesia, Schleswig and East Prussia and on the inter-Allied
Control Commissions (IAMCC), which were supervising German
disarmament. Drawing widely on a range of primary sources, David
Williamson explores the problems facing British military and civil
officials, their attitudes towards the Germans and their relations
with their allies - particularly the French. The book also examines
the everyday lives of the British soldiers and administrators in
Germany and their interaction with the Germans, with particular
attention being paid to the city of Cologne and the British colony
that developed there. This new edition brings David Williamson's study
fully up-to-date and now contains a greater coverage of the relevant
social history, as well as maps, illustrations and a useful glossary.
The British in Interwar Germany will be of great interest to students
and scholars of Weimar Germany and Britain and Europe during the
interwar years.
