The Kitchener Camp was a transit camp for Jewish refugees from March to September 1939. The self governing camp ran intensive educational courses in English and other subjects which would help those passing through the camp to relocate to new countries such as Australia. During this time Phinea May edited a monthly journal called The Kitchener Camp Review about the life in the camp. The articles were contributed by the refugees themselves.
In issue 1 Phineas wrote "When, through happier circumstances, this camp seases to exist for the use of refugees, it is our modest ambition that this journal will be a record for all time of the life as lived here". It is to help fulfill this wish that The Kitchener Camp Review has been digitized and recorded on CD-Rom in pdf format.
