Riassunto

Bearing Gifts to Greeks focuses on the under-documented work of the relief agencies involved in dealing with wartime famine and humanitarian aid in Greece during the tripartite German, Italian and Bulgarian occupation and the ensuing civil war in the 1940s. The written contributions are supported by a selection of remarkable photographs of the effects of the famine in Greece, many of which have not been published before.

Recensione:

'Bearing Gifts to Greeks fills a gap in the history of the war in Greece, and stands well alongside the better trodden paths of political and military history of the occupation, the resistance, and the Allied Military Mission. It is a story of misery and inhumanity, but also of inspiring human action and hope.' - The Anglo-Hellenic Review
