Lone Star Stalag German Prisoners of War at Camp Hearne

Between 1943 and 1945 nearly fifty thousand German Prisoners of war, mostly from the German Afrika Korps, lives and worked at seventy POW camps across Texas. Camp Hearne, located on the outskirts of rural Hearne, Texas, was one of the first and largest German prisoner-of-war camps in the United States. Waters and his research teams tell the story of the five thousand German soldiers held there during World War II. The book reveals the shadow world of Nazism that existed in the camp, adding darkness to a story that is otherwise optimistic and in places humorous.Waters, Michael R. is the author of 'Lone Star Stalag German Prisoners of War at Camp Hearne', published 2006 under ISBN 9781585445455 and ISBN 1585445452.
