This is the story of the Battle of Calais, a short but bloody struggle to delay the German advance in May 1940. It is a story of uncertainty, of taut nerves, of heat, dust, raging thirst and hand-to-hand fighting in the narrow streets of the channel port now known to millions of Britons as a gateway to the Continent. The guide will take the visitor beyond the ferry terminal and hypermarkets to reveal the hidden Calais and the actions of individuals and units.

Calais has a long history of transient refugee settlements and is often narrated through the endeavour to ‘sanitize’ it by both the English and the French in their policy and media discourses. Calais and its Border Politics encapsulates the border politics of Calais as an entry port through the refugee settlements known as the ‘Jungle’. By deconstructing how the jungle is a constant threat to the civilisation and sanity of Calais, the book traces the story of the jungle, both its revival and destruction as a recurrent narrative through the context of border politics. The book approaches Calais historically and through the key concept of the camp or the ‘jungle’ - a metaphor that becomes crucial to the inhuman approach to the settlement and in the justifications to destroy it continuously. The demolition and rebuilding of Calais also emphasises the denigration of humanity in the border sites. The authors offer a comprehensive insight into the making and unmaking of one of Europe’s long-standing refugee camps. The book explores the history of refugee camps in Calais and provides an insight into its representation and governance over time. The book provides an interdisciplinary perspective, employing concepts of space making, human form and corporeality, as well as modes of representation of the ‘Other’ to narrate the story of Calais as a border space through time, up to its recent representations in the media. This book’s exploration of the representation and governance of the contentious Calais camps will be an invaluable resource to students and scholars of forced migration, border politics, displacement, refugee crisis, camps and human trauma.

Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... commerce Calais had practically no native industries. The produce of corn-growing districts was absorbed in feeding the garrison and civil population, and even such common necessaries as timber and ordinary provisions seem to have been transported from England. A scanty source of profit was provided by the gathering and preparation of mint, which was used for medicinal purposes. The King used to name the receiver of the produce of this industry, as, for instance, in 1446, when a certain Richard Vernon was appointed. More important was the herring trade. The process of salting herrings, invented by William Benchelens of Barsliet in 1416, enabled herrings to be sold at long distance from the scene of their capture, and the convenient situation of Calais rendered it an important centre for this industry. Beer-brewing was also important. The presence of so many beer-loving English soldiers rendered it a necessity, and beer-houses were numerous throughout the town. So indispensable was beer to the garrison that Wentworth, in a despatch to Queen Mary in 1558, excused himself for not having opened the sluices and let in the sea upon the besieging French on the score that he feared" infesting the water wherewith we brew" with salt water.1 1 Archaologia, vol. liii., p. 312, where other instances are given of the importance of beer-brewing. I But the true commercial importance of Calais lay in the fact that it was the vent for English trade. For 200 years the commercial history of Calais is practically the commercial history of England. For military purposes Calais was the " gate into France"; from the standpoint of commerce Calais was a gate out of England. That without the Staple Calais would have lost half its importance is undisputed, and...
