German Immigrants in Britain during the 19th Century, 1815-1914 [Hardcover]

The first comprehensive study of the German immigrant community in Britain during the 19th century.This thoroughly researched study examines the condition of Germans, Britain's largest continental immigrant population for most of the 19th century.Panikos Panayi Senior Lecturer in History,De Montfort University, Leicester

Dr Panayi is a leading scholar on the study of German immigration to Britain and [this book] is highly informative and comprehensive. Lucio Sponza, University of Westminster

Panayi's fine work can be characterized as an introductory history, not mainly primary source-based, but resting on a wide range of secondary sources, and drawing heavily on the field of German-American Studies, thus leading to numerous interesting comparisons and conclusions between German-American and British-German history.
