Normandy Ghosts - Photos of Yesterday & Today

L20210068
€7.11 €14.22
The photographic technique of superimposing two identical images taken at two different periods is fairly widespread and visible on the web today, but is rarely published. It seemed fitting to use it to evoke the history of 1944, whose traces are visible everywhere in the Normandy we know today. Without following a "classic" account of the Battle of...

€18.86
Gérard Régnier recounts his exodus of June 1940 as a historian, placing it precisely within a period that, with hindsight, appears as the darkest in our national history: the "dark years." He meticulously describes the international situation during the 1930s, the retreat of the French and British Allies in the face of Hitler's provocations and his "bluff...

The tourist or museum visitor who discovers the history of the Normandy Landings sometimes encounters, during their visits, the remains of ships or weapons recovered from the seabed. Rarely documented and often left to one side on a lawn or in a corner of an exhibition, these relics — anchors, propellers or guns — remain silent and contribute little to an...

Calvados in the War 1939–1945

€23.22
The Allied landings of 6 June 1944 have monopolised the Norman memory of the Second World War, to the point of overshadowing vast swathes of the history of that period. Normans are inexhaustible when it comes to the D-Day landings and the Battle of Normandy, yet they are far less forthcoming about the Occupation, or else content themselves with lamentable...
