The Untold Story of German and Austrian Prisoners of War in China

Amidst the tragedy of World War I, comes a true story about China's history that sheds a warm light on its people. This little known story tells about the prisoners of war who received special treatment in China. During World War I, thousands of German and Austrian POWs enjoyed a comfortable, aristocratic life playing football, tennis and bowling in the former imperial gardens, palaces and vast snowfields of Northeast China. This was a period in history that shed a ray of sunshine during a time of human catastrophe. Filled with precious historical photos, the book tells The Untold Story of German and Austrian Prisoners of War in China.
