In Search of the Maquis

Bok av H. R. Kedward
This is a study of the maquis in southern France, the resisters who took to the woods and hills in the struggle against the German Occupation in the Second World War. From the many fascinating and moving individual stories emerge a sense of place a clearer understanding of the maquisard, and an unsentimental assessment of the role of the maquis in French history.
