This book examines diverse encounters between the British community and the thousands of French individuals who sought a haven in the British Isles as they left revolutionary and imperial France. This painstaking research into the emigrant archival and memorial presence in Britain uncovers a wealth of underused and alternative sources on this controversial population displacement. These include open letters and classified adverts published in British newspapers, private insurances, as well as lists of addresses and passports drawn by local authorities. These sources question the use by British loyalists and French émigré elites of a stereotyped emigrant figure and traumas following 1789. Public and private discourses on governmental systems, foreigners, political and religious dissent, charities and even work, demonstrate the existence of extremely heterogeneous responses to the emigrant presence in Britain. Ultimately, this book narrates a story in which the emigrant community and its host have been often unnoticeably yet fundamentally transformed by their encounter, in both practical and ideological domains.
