Description:
In Tulpen voor Wilhelmina, an attempt is made to map the group of Engelandvaarders as a whole, based on archive research and interviews. Agnes Dessing follows them closely, not only during their dangerous journey to England, but also in the period before and after. Who were these Engelandvaarders and what were their motives? How were they received in London by Queen Wilhelmina and the government in exile and how did they fare afterwards? The book ends with the post-war image of Engelandvaarders, in which the book Engelandvaarders by K.Norel and the film Soldaat van Oranje played a major role.
