War and Liberation in France Living with the

This book, coinciding with the sixtieth anniversary of the Liberation of France, takes a unique approach to the events of 1944, by seeing them as shared experiences which brought ordinary Anglo-Americans and French people into contact with each other in a variety of different communities. The book looks at the Liberation through 5 case-studies: Normandy, Cherbourg, Provence, the Pyrbliognblioges-Orientales and Reims, and uses the words of participants at the time to describe the developing relationship between Liberators and Liberated.

Hilary Footitt is Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Stirling.
