“A brilliantly written book, the first history - social and cultural as well as political and military - of the Occupation to be published in English for the general reader.”
Independent on Sunday
“The first such study in English... long-overdue, informed, sensitive, balanced and insightful... Ousby carefully delineates the causes and consequences... seeking neither to blame nor praise but, in the best traditions of biography - and this is virtually a political biography of a nation in trauma - seeking to understand... A work of judicious empathy and calm, persuasive moral authority. We who were not there should be grateful.”
Sunday Times
“A compelling account... His book is a valuable distillation culled from the vast amount of literature on the subject available in French, and it provides a wealth of intriguing detail about daily life and contemporary attitudes.”
The Independent
“He has a gift for evoking concretely how life was lived and how the world looked... A reliable and moving evocation of the dilemmas of ordinary life during France's most unendurable years.”
