Thousands were returned to face death and exile at the hands of their war-time enemies - Tito's Partisans - who had triumphed by the war's end. Yet the story of exile is also one of triumph as the surviving refugees built new lives in Argentina, the USA, Canada and Britain. The authors call on more than half a century of research and an unsurpassed knowledge of the Slovene migrant communities around the world to tell their stories. 'Very valuable...extremely interesting...the material is absolutely fascinating and historically very important' - Dr Barbara Harrell-Bond, Founder-Director, University of Oxford Refugee Studies Centre.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>John Corsellis has published a series of articles on the Slovene refugees based on his post-war involvement with them.
