New book on POW camp in Skipton

Recommended Posts

To celebrate the launch of "German Prisoners of the Great War" the author Anne Buckley is giving an online talk about the camp and life in it on Thursday evening (1st April).  It's free but tickets have to be booked through https://www.cravendc.gov.uk/skipton-town-hall/concert-hall/specialist-talk-anne-buckley-april-1st/

This is a repeat of a talk from a couple of weeks ago that I attended and I can well recommend the event to anyone.

Sounds interesting. Wasn't it also the first camp where the Bradford Pals were located?
