A new book says a Manx internment camp was the most elite university in the world just after the start of World War Two.
Ark of Civilisation: Refugee Scholars and Oxford University 1930-45 says Hutchinson Camp in Douglas held some of the greatest German scholars of the day.
The book says in 1940, refugees who'd fled the Nazis gave lectures and seminars at the camp behind the Villa Marina.
It tells the story of how the academics taught in what is Hutchinson Square.
