Book
Taking Paris : the epic battle for the city of lights / by Martin Dugard.
"From Martin Dugard, the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of the Killing series with Bill O'Reilly, comes the spellbinding story of the Allied liberation of Paris from the grip of the Nazis during World War II"-- Provided by publisher.
May 1940. The world is stunned as Hitler's forces invade France with a devastating blitzkrieg aimed at Paris. Within weeks, the French government has collapsed, and the City of Lights, revered for its carefree lifestyle, intellectual freedom, and love of liberty, has fallen under Nazi control. Over 120,000 Parisians die under German occupation; countless more are tortured in the city's Gestapo prisons and sent to death camps. From the fall of Paris in 1940 to the race for Paris in 1944, Dugard unfolds the drama of decisions made-- for better and worse-- by those who hold the fate of Paris in their hands. -- adapted from jacket
