Story
Susan Tate Ankeny was sorting through the belongings of her late father - a World War II bombardier who had bailed from a burning B-17 over Nazi-occupied France in 1944 - when she found two boxes. One contained her dad's Air Force uniform, and the other an unfinished memoir, stacks of envelopes, black-and-white photographs, mission reports, dog tags, and the fake identity cards he used in his escape. Ankeny spent more than a decade from that moment tracking down letter writers, their loved ones, and anyone who had played a role in her father's story.

Story
Who Killed My Father rips into France’s long neglect of the working class and its overt contempt for the poor, accusing the complacent French - at the minimum - of negligent homicide. The author goes to visit the ugly gray town of his childhood to see his dying father, barely 50 years old, who can hardly walk or breathe: “You belong to the category of humans whom politics consigns to an early death.” It’s as simple as that.

Story
Jacques Bainville, historien éminent de l'Académie Française, nous raconte ici de façon claire et succincte la grande Histoire de son pays. En huit chapitres qui vont de Vercingétorix à la scission de 1830, l'auteur démontre que l'histoire ne peut être résumée à une succession de dates. Bien au contraire, l'histoire de la France est pétrie de complexité, d'évènements interconnectés que son talent arrive à mettre en perspective de façon à la rendre compréhensible. Car cet ouvrage d'une grande qualité est avant toute chose accessible au grand public.

La Révolution française est la période de l'histoire de France comprise entre l'ouverture des États généraux, le 5 mai 1789, et le coup d'État du 18 brumaire de Napoléon Bonaparte, le 9 novembre 1799.

Story
1217 charts the nascent sense of national identity that began to swell. Three key battles would determine England’s destiny. The fortress of Dover was besieged, the city of Lincoln was attacked, and a great invasion force set sail and, unusually for the time, was intercepted at sea. Catherine Hanley expertly navigates medieval siege warfare, royal politics, and fighting at sea to bring this remarkable period of English history to life.

Story
La Résistance, constitue aujourd'hui encore une terre méconnue. Les Français furent-ils tous engagés ou tous "collabos" ? La vérité se situe sans doute à mi-chemin. L'engagement dans la Résistance ne fut pas facile à trouver, aucune institution n'appelait à la lutte en 1940. L'armée des ombres fut aussi traversée par des doutes et des conflits, Olivier Wieviorka revisite en historien d'une génération nouvelle cette période sombre de notre histoire.

Les rois de France en majesté. Il ne s'agit pas d'une histoire de la monarchie française, mais de celle de " nos rois " : ceux dont le règne a le plus marqué l'histoire nationale. Si Franck Ferrand évoque, par souci de clarté et de filiation, les premiers (jusqu'au début de la dynastie capétienne) et les derniers monarques (jusqu'à Louis-Philippe), il s'attache principalement à raconter la vie et l'œuvre de quatorze d'entre eux, depuis Philippe-Auguste jusqu'à Louis XVI.

The year was 1832, a cholera pandemic raged, and the French royal family was in exile, driven out by yet another revolution. From a drafty Scottish castle, the duchesse de Berry - the mother of the 11-year-old heir to the throne - hatched a plot to restore the Bourbon dynasty. For months, she commanded a guerilla army and evaded capture by disguising herself as a man. But soon she was betrayed by her trusted advisor, Simon Deutz, the son of France's Chief Rabbi.

Comtesse Valtesse de la Bigne was painted by Édouard Manet and inspired Émile Zola, who immortalized her in his scandalous novel Nana. Her rumored affairs with Napoleon III and the future King Edward VII kept gossip columns full. But her glamorous existence hid a dark secret: She was no comtesse. She was born into abject poverty, raised on a squalid backstreet among the dregs of Parisian society. Yet she transformed herself into an enchantress.

A white-knuckle account of the First Infantry Division’s harrowing D-Day assault on the eastern sector of Omaha Beach - acclaimed historian John C. McManus has written a gripping history that will stand as the last word on this titanic battle. Nicknamed the Big Red One, First Division had fought from North Africa to Sicily, earning a reputation as stalwart warriors on the front lines and rabble-rousers in the rear. Yet on D-Day, these jaded combat veterans melded with fresh-faced replacements to accomplish one of the most challenging and deadly missions ever.

Beneath the veneer of elegance, however, fin de siècle Paris was a city at war with itself. In City of Light, City of Shadows, Mike Rapport uncovers a Paris riven by social anxieties and plagued by overlapping epidemics of poverty, political extremism, and anti-Semitism.
