In particular, it was interesting to gain insight on how the city of Hearne embraced having the prison camp located near their town and the working relationship developed over the war years between the German prisoners and the local farmers. Also fascinating was the account of one of the inmate's murder at the hands of radical, fellow, prisoners. Unfortunately, too much of the book was devoted to endless minutia regarding the inventory of relics found during archaeological digs. Also, I thought the description of how the mail system was operated could have been a bit more concise - again too tedious.
