The controversial and still sensitive story of the Nazi collaborators of occupied Europe -- what they did, why they did it, and the consequences of their actions for millions of their fellow citizens.
Dangerous Liaisons
The Nazi regime in Germany was terrible enough without even accounting for the policy of collaboration. So what extra does collaboration say about Hitler and his plans for Europe? Peter Davies explores the mindset and political attitudes of Hitler and also many other controversial pro-Nazi leaders in Western Europe, Scandanavia, Central and Eastern Europe, and also beyond.

David Drake contrasts the plight of working-class Parisians with the comparative comfort of the rich, exposes the activities of collaborationists, and traces the growth of the Resistance from producing leaflets to gunning down German soldiers.

The French at War, 1934-1944
The years 1934 to 1944 remain the most contentious and dramatic decade in modern French history.
