Praise
for The Enemy Among Us
"David
Fiedler provides us with a fascinating look at a seldom-examined facet of World
War II, and, in the process, gives us a fascinating look at ourselves during
those times." — General John W. Vessey, Former Chairman, Joint Chiefs of
Staff
“By using numerous oral histories, memoirs, letters, newspaper accounts, and government documents, David Fiedler has written a very moving and human account of what it meant to be a POW in World War II Missouri, both for the 15,000 German and Italian prisoners and for the camp officials and civilians who interacted with them.” — Lewis H. Carlson, author of We Were Each Other’s Prisoners: An Oral History of World War II American and German Prisoners of War.
