Printing Details
First edition. Small hardback in dustwrapper. 15 × 11.5cm, 138pp.
Written in the aftermath of the Fall of France in 1940, this book reflects the raw perspective of a French soldier grappling with his nation's sudden military defeat, occupation, and the path toward moral and national recovery. The author uses the pseudonym Jacques to remain anonymous, a common measure for Free French voices and writers under or escaping Nazi-occupied Europe to protect themselves and their families.
Condition
A very good copy, with a few spots of foxing to the pages' top edge.
