Thousands of books have been published about war while the role of the prisoner of war has been largely ignored. This wide-ranging study is the outcome of the author’s thirty year quest to collect information about a neglected and almost forgotten field of history, set against an historical background dating from the Seven Years’ War (1756-63) to Napoleon’s downfall in 1816. Information has been painstakingly acquired by detailed searches through the Public Records Offices of England, Scotland and Wales and the archives of numerous county towns. The author has also studied more than one hundred towns and villages, where paroled captured officers were detained, and visited the sites of prison depots – great and small – and ports and rivers where the dreaded prison hulks had once been moored. During the course of his lengthy researches, the author assembled what may well be one of the largest private collections of prisoner of war artefacts in existence. A representative selection of these items is featured and shows the extraordinary high standard of workmanship achieved by many of the prisoners of war.
