Do you know where Guernsey is on a map? I didn't, not until I started watching The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. Fascinated by the story in the movie, I started to research where in the world Guernsey is, and I came across a fascinating story of German occupation in World War II.
Today's ten minutes is a background of Guernsey from the early 11th century all the way to its German occupation from 1940 to 1945.
