Cynthia Bisson, PhD, Professor of History, Belmont University, French Resistant Expert“Informative and entertaining, Stew Ross’ newest work evokes a difficult and frightening time in the history of the City of Light. The detailed descriptions of sites such as the Vél’ d’hiv’ or Gestapo headquarters reminds us of the choices people made during those years.”
Patrick Morrissey, Amazon customerParis Occupation History and Guide Book
This book presents three detailed walking tours and numerous metro station oriented short walks that identified significant occupation locations. Each location on the walk is fully explained. In addition, the author uses many sidebars to provide additional supporting information. The appendix provides a wealth of additional information and pictures that the novice and well read Occupation scholar will find helpful. Whether your first exposure to the Occupation or one of many books you have read, this book is a must read prior to visiting Paris. The format and size of the book make it easy to carry in your carry-on luggage. The book is the first of a three volume set. I can’t wait to see the information to be presented in Volumes 2 & 3.

After reading Hero of Two Words, I was delighted to see
a Memorial from the Daughters of the American Revolution in honor of Adrienne de Noailles: Wife of General Lafayette.
She was a remarkable woman in her own right. Thank you.
