Under Suspicion: Citizenship and internment in Australia during the Second World War

Ed: Joan Beaumont (580.14/36037)
Publisher: National Museum of Australia ISBN: 9781876944605

During the Second World War the Australian Government interned thousands of Australian residents, mostly of German, Italian or Japanese background, who were considered a security risk. The essays in Under Suspicion: Citizenship and Internment in Australia during the Second World War explores some of these stories, which reveal the sometimes disturbing nature of how the nation reacts on the home front when its existence is threatened by war.
