Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a first-hand account of the experiences of British soldiers interned in Switzerland during the First World War. It begins by exploring conditions in Switzerland at the outbreak of hostilities and the Swiss attitude towards the war. The author was appointed as British officer in charge of the arrangements for interning British soldiers, and describes in detail the negotiations that took place between Britain, Germany, France, and Switzerland to establish the principle of internment. The book gives insight into the way the Swiss organized the internment process and the medical treatment provided for the sick and wounded. As well as the day-to-day challenges of managing the camps, the author also provides details of the technical and educational training programs put in place for the soldiers during their internment. Through the author's experiences, the book sheds light on the broader historical and humanitarian context of the First World War, and offers a unique perspective on the treatment and care of prisoners of war.
