- Double-weighted statement
- This 120,000 word monograph was the product of a 4 year schedule of primary-source based original research focused on the unstudied topic of Britain's adherence to international humanitarian law during WWII. This research involved 6 months of sustained work with German and French language sources at two Red Cross archives in Geneva and the Basel University Library, in addition to several months-long research trips to national and specialist archives in London and Washington DC, during which hitherto unconsulted Red Cross correspondence with HMG and DC was analysed, allowing for the presentation of a new perspective on "humanitarian diplomacy" during WWII.
