From Dunkirk evacuees to intelligence-gathering and atom bomb research, Oxford had a distinctive Second World War experience. Focusing on the University, though embracing the city and the surrounding countryside, this talk explores major themes in Kellogg Fellow Prof Ashley Jackson’s forthcoming book, 'Oxford’s War', to be published by the Bodleian Library

This event is open to the public. Refreshments will be served after the talk.
