For the Glory of France The Story of the French Resistance Maria Wilhelm

On June 22, 1940, France surrendered to Nazi Germany. Her armies beaten, her leaders and people demoralized, France seemed utterly vanquished. Soon however it became clear to both the German conquerors and an astonished world that the spirit of this great nation was far from broken. With each passing month, up to the time the Allies invaded France, the tide of resistance rose. Clandestine newspapers flourished, a network of sabotage and espionage spread and a secret army came into being, ready to wage war against their hated oppressors. This is the inspiring and unforgettable story of patriots fighting for their country, and free men refusing to be enslaved.
