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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eChris Millington addresses the chief topics in chapters that synthesizes the key points of the history and the historiography.
