Defying Vichy: Blood, Fear and French Resistance

No Customer Reviews

July 1940 saw the collaborationist Vichy regime replace the French Republic after the country suffered heavily at the hands of the German onslaught during World War II. A small number of people sought to make a stand in whatever way they could, despite fear and mortal danger. From railway workers and couriers to guerrilla fighters and foreign agents, each played their part in destabilizing Marshal P tain's poisonous regime. This book casts new light on the Resistance, using unique first-person accounts and newly translated archival records to highlight how ordinary people refused, protested, fought, and ultimately became heroes of the Resistance.
