Between them, husband and wife authors Beevor and Cooper have written a number of nonfiction works; both were appointed Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government. Cooper is also the granddaughter of Duff Cooper, the first postwar British ambassador to Paris; his private diaries and papers provide one of the previously unpublished sources for this account of events leading up to the liberation of Paris and the years following immediately after. Specific changes in the revised edition are not stated. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Library JournalBeever and Cooper's highly regarded 1994 volume profiles the political fallout in Paris following the defeat of the Nazis and the rise of communism. It was a time when U.S. and other Allied troops were considered by many French citizens to be the new invaders trying to take over their country. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
