Requirements: .ePUB reader, : 691 KB
Overview: The Channel Islands were what could have happened to all of us: a test-run of German occupation. That was certainly Hitler’s plan. Once Britain had demilitarised the idyllic, unspoilt holiday islands of Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney and Sark in 1940 their fate was sealed: in July the Germans invaded.
The following five years in their history offer an intriguing, and often uncomfortable, virtual history of how Britain might have looked under Nazi rule — and how British people, more to the point, might have responded to it, whether through submission, courageous resistance or even collaboration.
