Bearing Gifts to Greeks: Humanitarian Aid to Greece in the 1940s

'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 occupation and the ensuing civil war in the 1940s. A selection of remarkable photographs from the time, many of which have not been published before, support the text.
