MORE ON 'SILENT WITNESSES: CIVILIAN CAMP MONEY OF WORLD WAR II'

Steve Feller forwarded a nice writeup of the new book written by he
and his daughter Ray on the Civilian Camp Money of World War II.
Here are some key excerpts:

"The book spans the time period 1933 to almost 1950 and includes German
concentration camps, ghettos, internment camps from all sides, and
displaced persons camps. Nearly a thousand illustrations are used and
they are in full color.

"Camp money from the Second World War is an enormously broad topic.
In the book the focus is on the civilian camps. This book is divided
first according to types of camps, and second, when appropriate,
according to the power behind the camp: Axis, Allied, or Neutral.

"For the book as a whole, money is known from: Australia, Austria,
Canada, Cyprus, Czechoslovakia, France, Germany, Hungary, India,
Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Lithuania, Netherlands, Netherlands
East Indies, New Zealand, Philippines, Poland, South Africa,
Switzerland, Tanganyka, United Kingdom, and the United States.

"This volume is much more than a catalog as the camps are described
In much detail, much more than has ever appeared in the numismatic
press. The book is available from BNR Press for $35 + handling ($4 to
U.S., Canada and Mexico; $8 elsewhere; $15 airmail). A special
edition of the book is available, please enquire. Please contact
