Packing to go home tomorrow. Such a privilege to have been invited to be the author in residence in Masnières this week.
Very impressed with the work the students and staff put into studying my book and also their work on the Occupation of the Channel Islands. @barnthorn

I finished this terrific book this afternoon. @Nickleh shines a light into a forgotten corner of SWW history. Plus I donβt get stripped of my low IC number for reading too many German history books. Seriously a good book, bit of a myth buster in my view.

If you are looking for something to do on Sunday 24th May I am leading a walking tour around St Peter Port as part of the Spring Walking Festival.
It looks like the weather will be good for an easy stroll around town to learn about defiance, danger and liberation.
