Last Barrier to Freedom: Internment of Jewish Holocaust Survivors on Cyprus 1946-1949 / At the end of World War II, thousands of Jewish Holocaust Survivors poured out of Europe into overcrowded boats bound for Palestine, only to be halted by the British authorities and deported to the island of Cyprus--placed once more behind barbed wire. Those who were removed from the refugee boats must have felt that even after Hitler, the civilised world cared little about their fatew. The full story of these homeless survivors caught between the devastation of the Holocaust and the creation of the State of Israel is told for the first time in Last Barrier to Freedom.
