With the approach of the First World War, the German community in Britain began to be assailed by a combination of government measures and popular hostility which resulted in attacks against individuals with German connections and confiscation of their property. From May 1915, a policy of wholesale internment and repatriation was to reduce the German population by more than half of its pre-war figure. The author of this study charts the growth of the German community in Britain before detailing the story of its destruction under the chauvinistic intolerance which gripped the country during the Great War.

Swallowing the light stood a grand, ominous oak tree as the men, clad in black, slithered across the riverbank and up the steeply inclined escarpment. They didn’t want to be seen, especially with the heavy gear strapped to their backs. The weight of the liquids and metal equipment they were carrying nearly sunk all four of them into the edge of the marshland bordering the riverbank. It could’ve been worse for them though; they were thankful that during the cool fall weather of Benson, the marsh water wasn’t on the verge of freezing. They did have the tougher job, as they were assigned to the heavy gear as opposed to the other lighter laboratory equipment that the other men transported through the same area last week.

Does Jesus’ call to love our enemies mean that we should remain silent in the face of injustice? Jesus called us to love our enemies. But to befriend an enemy, we first have to acknowledge their existence, understand who they are, and recognize the ways they are acting in opposition to God’s good news. In How to Have an Enemy: Righteous Anger and the Work of Peace, Melissa Florer-Bixler looks closely at what the Bible says about enemies—who they are, what they do, and how Jesus and his followers responded to them. The result is a theology that allows us to name our enemies as a form of truth-telling about ourselves, our communities, and the histories in which our lives are embedded. Only then can we grapple with the power of the acts of destruction carried out by our enemies, and invite them to lay down their enmity, opening a path for healing, reconciliation, and unity. ​ Jesus named and confronted his enemies as an essential part to loving them. In this provocative book, Florer-Bixler calls us to do the same.
