Furst is in his old stomping ground of World War II here. Jean Casson, movie producer and reluctant fighter finds himself pinched between the storm troopers and the Paris he used to enjoy. Furst clips his sentences in a unique style that helps to keep the book moving. Just the same, I was hoping for... more info

Customer Review:
book for children to read. Not all stories that come from the holocaust are horror tales. This is a good one for the children to read for a unit study on the holocaust. My children liked it.

| | 6. |  | Napoleon's Egypt: Invading the Middle East
from Palgrave Macmillan
Price: $24.95
Customer Review:
Napoleon's Egypt: Invading the Middle East by Juan Cole should surely be considered "must reading" for anyone interested in today's foreign policy issues as they relate to this part of the world.

| | 9. |  | The Unfree French: Life Under the Occupation
from Yale University Press
Price: $13.60
Customer Review:
This is a well written, enjoyable and quick read on an area of WWII that doesn't get a lot of coverage at least in the States. My one complaint is that he uses a lot of French terms, titles and names without translating. Possibly he or his editor felt it wasn't necessary to understanding the story... more info
