Eleven Days in August: The Liberation of Paris in 1944
The liberation of Paris was a momentous point in twentieth-century history, yet it is now largely forgotten outside France.
Eleven Days in August is a pulsating hour-by-hour reconstruction of these tumultuous events that shaped the final phase of the war and the future of France. It tells of how, in eleven dramatic days, people lived, fought and died in the most beautiful city in the world.
Based largely on unpublished archive material, including secret conversations, coded messages, diaries and eyewitness accounts, Eleven Days in August shows how these August days were experienced in very different ways by ordinary Parisians, Resistance fighters, rank-and-file German soldiers and more.
One of the most iconic moments in the history of the twentieth century had come to a close, and the face of Paris would never be the same again.
