- This monograph offers the first comprehensive study of Muslim migrant integration in rural Britain across the post-1960s period, with Wiltshire as case study. Policies and the everyday lives of communities were researched over the course of several years through previously unexplored archives and 38 oral history interviews. As Wiltshire’s local authority did not have one specific committee that monopolised issues of migration, extensive archival research across Wiltshire was required. Similarly, Wiltshire’s Muslim communities are dispersed across a large county. It was necessary to build up trust and engage with multiple, and at times ‘hidden’ Muslim communities across a wide geography.
