{"product_id":"france-in-the-second-world-chris-millington-9781350094963","title":"France in the Second World War: Collaboration, Resistance, Holocaust, Empire","description":"During 1940-1944, the citizens of France and its Empire endured the 'dark years' of invasion, persecution and foreign occupation. Thousands of men, women and children suffered arrest, deportation and death as the French Vichy regime worked to secure a place for France in Hitler's New Order. France in the Second World War is a wide-ranging yet succinct introduction to the French experience of the Second World War and its aftermath. It examines the fall of France in 1940 and the founding of the Vichy regime, as well as collaboration, resistance, everyday life, the Holocaust, the Liberation and the echoes of the period in contemporary France.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChris Millington addresses the chief topics in chapters that synthesizes the key points of the history and the historiography. The French Empire is carefully integrated throughout, illustrating the global impact of events on mainland France. In addition, Millington provides a helpful glossary of terms, personalities and movements from the period and an annotated bibliography of English-language sources to guide students to the most relevant works in the area.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrance in the Second World War\u003c\/i\u003e provides a comprehensive introduction to the history and historiography of France and its Empire during their darkest hours.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Millington\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 135009496X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350094963\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2021","brand":"Chris Millington","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983593013503,"sku":"9781350094963","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a61ac15a-1de9-4d96-88c8-6a68493c91fb.jpg?v=1683267569","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/france-in-the-second-world-chris-millington-9781350094963","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
