The world was shocked when Nazi Germany defeated France in May 1940. Since the defeat, France has been accused of all kinds of things ranging from pusillanimosity to 'je m'en foutisme'. This book shows the defeat as due to a gross strategic error both by the French and the British, combined with political strife and uncertainty. A must read to understand fully what happened.
