Ruhleben was a civilian detention camp in Germany during World War I, which housed citizens of the Allied Powers who had found themselves in Germany at the outbreak of the war. It was located at a racetrack in Spandau, a suburb of Berlin, and the detainees were mostly housed in stalls originally intended for racehorses. The camp remained operative until Armistice Day in 1918. Of the 6 volumes of The Ruhleben Camp Magazine included here, vol. 5 constitutes a Christmas issue.
