| Description: |
This republication of M D R Foots classic study of European Resistance aims to bring his significant findings to a new audience. |
| Synopsis: |
`If you who read this can say, I am not under fire; I am not under torture; I am not on the run; if I hear a noise at six in the morning, I know it is a neighbour or a milkman, not the secret police; no one in my country is arrested and held without prompt charge and trial . . . then you owe it, in a larger degree than most historians have so far allowed, to the resistance that occupied Europe put up to Hitler.' M. R. D. FootThis brilliant book was the first to analyse the whole field of wartime resistance to the Nazis in Europe; to explain what resisters could and could not do; to assess, in outline, whether they achieved their aims.Whether he was dealing with the individual resisters themselves, or with the technicalities of resistance as it actually took place - with its drama of Intelligence, deception, escape and subversion - M. R. D. Foot (one of the most distinguished historians of his time) is equally fluent and persuasive. In following a truly epic theme, and in gathering its main threads into the fabric of a single volume, Foot achieved a work of gripping and lasting significance. |
