50315X1 Harry N. Abrams, Inc., New York: 2000. 257+ pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. Gift inscription on first inside page. Through hundreds of photographs and documents never before or rarely seen, Collaboration and Resistance offers an unprecedented view of life in France during the German occupation in World War II. Plumbing an archival source that only recently has begun to yield its secrets, the authors have gathered an astonishing collection of photographs, posters, newspaper pages, and leaflets-most from the Vichy government's Office of Propaganda-covering every aspect of life under Vichy rule. Commentaries by eight distinguished French historians squarely confront an uncomfortable time in their nation's past: the oppressive German presence, the Vichy government's uneasy alliance with both Germany and domestic ultra right-wing groups, and the heroic defiance of the Resistance. Includes an Index. ISBN: 0810941236 $74.25USD
