"Bearing Gifts to Greeks" focuses on the under-documented work of the relief agencies involved in dealing with wartime famine and humanitarian aid in Greece during the tripartite German, Italian and Bulgarian occupation and the ensuing civil war in the 1940s. The written contributions are supported by a selection of remarkable photographs of the effects of the famine in Greece, many of which have not been published before.
