Orphans Of The Republic
On July 10, 1940, by a 570 to 80 margin, the representatives in the French parliament voted full powers to Philippe Petain, ending the Third Republic and paving the way for the collaborationist Vichy regime. This work offers a nuanced portrait of the individuals who determined the fate of France at this critical moment.
