Book Reviews of The Fall of France : The Nazi Invasion of 1940 (Modern World S.)
Book Review: The Fall of France
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a first rate text with an excellent balance of narrative and analysis. Without diminishing the tradegy of June 1940, the book explores in an even-handed fashion the folly, inertia, complacency and internecine scape-goating that caused, and was ultimately a consequence of, the fall of France. Professor Jackson's book is immensely readable, but that does not diminish the quality of the detail which it sets out.
