In his posthumous work, Marc Bloch, regarded by some as the greatest historian of the 20th century, recounts his experiences of the fall of France in 1940. Written as a captain of the General Staff, it is a profound reflection on a shameful defeat and a society in crisis. The book also includes his clandestine political writings from his time in the Resistance before his execution by the Gestapo in 1944.
