Abstract

As Fitzpatrick notes, most of the Russians who came to Australia after the war did so "accidentally" (151). In this book, her first book-length foray into Australian migration history, Fitzpatrick unravels the mystery of why migrants to Australia had to become adept at masking their identities, not only from Australians but from each other. White Russians, Red Peril: A Cold War History of Migration to Australia: By Sheila Fitzpatrick. [Extracted from the article]
