After the agony and victory of 1914-1918, the French nation is plunged into a new war in which France's democratic institutions are dismantled by rogue politicians and the national honor is sacrificed through collaboration with a brutal and avaricious occupier. Through the analysis of recent scholarship and primary sources, the most important episodes of France's wartime nightmare are examined: the end of the Third Republic, the ignominy of collaboration, and the various manifestations of resistance both within and outside of France.
