Propaganda and Persecution
The French Resistance and the “Jewish Question”
Renée Poznanski
Translated by Lenn J. Schramm

“Renée Poznanski is one of the finest scholars of our time on the subject of France during the Holocaust and World War II. Her central question here—How much did the French Resistance care about Jews and antisemitism?—is timely, and she presents a mountain of evidence to support her thesis.”
—Ethan Katz, University of California, Berkeley
