| Publisher Description: How France debased itself in the course of a decade, shredding the qualities that had helped make it great, . How its ingrained anti-Semitiism blew up like a balloon from 1940. How its treatment of refugees from the Spanish Civil War was unconscionable, and of Jews, both refurgees and citizens, predatory and murderous. The unique aspect of this book is an examination of French concentration camps and how their inmates got in and out of them. Though the streams of refugees into the apparent haven that was France were distinct in origin, they often met in the camps or, out of them, in the French Resistance. |
