Epilogue. 330 $aFor 18 months during World War II, the Canadian military interned 1,145 prisoners of war in Red Rock, Ontario (about 100 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay). "Camp R" held an unlikely assortment of German prisoners: Nazis, anti-Nazis, Jews, soldiers, merchant seamen, and refugees whom Britain feared might comprise Hitler's rumoured "fifth column" of alien enemies residing within the Commonwealth. For the first time and in riveting detail, the author illuminates the conditions of one of Canada's forgotten POW camps. Through interviews and meticulous archival research, Zimmermann fleshes out this rich history. Written in an accessible, lively style, The Little Third Reich on Lake Superior will captivate military and political historians as well as non-specialists interested in the history of POWs and internment in Canada.$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xPrisoners and prisons, Canadian 606 $aPrisoner-of-war camps$zOntario$zRed Rock 606 $aPrisoners of war$zGermany$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPrisoners of war$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xPrisoners and prisons, Canadian. 615 0$aPrisoner-of-war camps 615 0$aPrisoners of war$xHistory 615 0$aPrisoners of war$xHistory 676 $a940.54/7271312 700 $aZimmermann$b Ernest Robert$f1931-2008,$0965340 702 $aBeaulieu$b Michel S. 702 $aRatz$b David K$g(David Karl),$f1965- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460598303321 996 $aThe Little Third Reich on Lake Superior$92190252 997 $aUNINA
