Very informative

I have read a lot about France during W.W. II, but much of it (the politics in particular) had baffled me until I read this book. Morgan takes very dense information and makes it understandable! A very readable and very educational book.

The one book in my library I would hate to lose!

If you are at all interested, no matter how little, in the situation of France and her citizens during wwII then you must read this book! No author i have read has been able to convey so clearly, the emotions of this dramatic period. from the fumbling government ministers to the death defying resitance members, Morgan is able to capture the desperation of the moment. so many books focus on either the top level of decision makers or the common citizens experience, Morgan provides insight into both realms with clarity, irony and sometimes even humor.
