"'Gatrell offers a deftly written, comprehensive and at times heartbreaking account of the mass movement of populations. Drawing from a rich array of primary and secondary materials, first-hand accounts and historial reflections, The making of the modern refugee is a terrific introduction to the history of mass displacement in the past century', Michael Barnett, The European Review of History"--Cover page 4.
