February 1944: Operation Argument, the greatest aerial battle in history. It is too easily forgotten: the Americans and the British were not certain of success when they landed in Normandy on 6 June 1944.

Since 1998 and the first work on the Morane 406 published by Lela Presse, numerous discoveries have made a new publication indispensable. The sheer volume of this study — which has necessitated its division into two parts while covering only the aircraft in French markings — is proof of this. The list of contributors also reflects the enthusiasm the...

The Collaboration, between 1940 and 1944, was not an invention of the German victor; the latter occupied, administered, persecuted and plundered, without concern for the approval of the vanquished. It was the vanquished who first resorted to this word and gave it substance in the hope — quickly turned illusion — of profiting from it. The Collaboration...

The Franco-British intervention at Narvik, in Norway, in May 1940, passed relatively unnoticed because, at that very moment, Germany was launching its victorious offensive against France.
