€20.85
For our contemporaries, Dietrich Von Choltitz has the features of Niels Arestrup, who portrayed him masterfully in Volker Schlöndorff's film "Diplomatie", staging his fateful face-to-face with Swedish consul Raoul Nordling, played by André Dussollier. At the conclusion of their discussions, the military commander of Paris agrees not to carry out Hitler's...

The Line Infantry bore the brunt of the final years of the Empire, from the campaign in France to Waterloo, before radically changing its face in 1815, at the time of the Second Restoration. Indeed, infantry regiments temporarily disappeared in favour of departmental legions before adopting the uniform whose colours would not change again until the Great...

Perspectives on the Franco-German War of 1870-1871 This special issue on the conflict of 1870-1871 aims to complement the many studies and accounts that have been published on this subject. It does not claim to "recount" the war in the face of this wealth of easily accessible and highly comprehensive sources. La Sabretache has favoured a more diverse...

L20200279
€18.96
The Cuirassiers, Consulate and Empire Drawing on the lessons of his success at Marengo during the Italian campaign of 1800, Napoleon Bonaparte took advantage of the three years of peace that followed to reorganise his army.

THEY FOUGHT May-June 1940 - Unpublished Photos and Testimonies of the Battle of France

L20200278
€23.70
The defeat of 1940 remains the greatest political and moral drama to have shaken France in the 20th century. Beaten in six weeks, the French have since retained the impression of an ill-equipped national army and a poorly commanded country, quicker to flee than to resist the enemy. More broadly, the "syndrome of forty" is a deep trauma in the collective...

The Great Blunders of the Second World War

L20200277
€18.96
The Second World War lasted nearly six years, as long as they were terrible. A duration explained by the formidable means that the belligerents deployed on land, at sea and in the skies — making it futile to hope to defeat the enemy in a single campaign — but also, and in large part, by the mistakes committed. Had Hitler not persisted in winning the...

French Vampire and Mistral - Volume 2

Although the Vampire was designed and used as a fighter by the Armée de l'Air, this role was not to remain its exclusive domain for long. The arrival of American aircraft under the MDAP framework, and the progressive development of Marcel Dassault's fighters, overshadowed it — not least because they were more modern and simply better. A use had...
