Description: "Following the Nazi invasion of Yugoslavia, a group of about 3,000 evacuees was taken to Italy and then to an Egyptian desert camp by the UNRRA. This outstanding document shows how these people, torn away from their native environment of green mountain valleys and of their culture, and their community living in the barrenness of the desert, provided with basic assistance by the UNRRA, they built from there to restore amazingly their national culture."
