Reviews
extremely useful for historians interested in both occupied France and in the nature of Nazi organization. * Richard Vinen, American Historical Review *
Thomas Laub is at his strongest and particularly convincing when discussing the internal dynamics of the German occupation. After the Fall makes a valuable contribution to the history of the Second World War and enhances our understanding of the deadly dynamic lent to that war by Nazism. It deserves an appreciative readership. * Conan Fischer, German History *
Throughout the study, Laub carefully assesses the MbF's policies and actions against the evidence, concluding that while it was certainly complicit in the regime's worst crimes, important distinctions need to be made between and among the various institutions and organizations involved in the occupation. Laub's book will likely come to represent the new orthodoxy. * Talbot Imlay, H-France *
