Content Description
Hunter was interned in a number of different camps for officers, including Oflag VII C, Oflag IX A/Z and Oflag VIB. Whilst the stories were written during his internment, they do not describe his experiences during that time.
Prior to the Second World War, Hunter had lived in Ferozepur and Allahabad, India before moving to Oban around 1936, which is reflected in his stories.
