Book Mayoral Collaboration under Nazi Occupation in Belgium  the Netherlands and France  1938 46

Download or read book Mayoral Collaboration under Nazi Occupation in Belgium the Netherlands and France 1938 46 written by Nico Wouters and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of mayors in navigating the realities of living and governing under Nazi occupation. In Western Europe under Nazi occupation, mayors of villages and cities were forced into strategic cooperation with the occupier. Mayors had to provide good governance, mediate between occupier and populations, maintain personal legitimacy, and build local consensus. However, as national systems underwent authoritarian reform and collaborationists infiltrated administrations, local governments were gradually turned into instruments of Nazi control and repression. Nico Wouters uses rich new archival data to compare the realities of local government in three countries. Looking at topics such as food supply, public order and safety, forced labour, the repression of resistance, the persecution of the Jews and post-war purges, this book redefines our knowledge of collaboration, resistance and accommodation during Nazi occupation.

Book Through the Iron Bars  Two Years of German Occupation in Belgium

Download or read book Through the Iron Bars Two Years of German Occupation in Belgium written by Emile Cammaerts and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the Iron Bars is a poetic and factual description of the Belgian losses during World War I. Georgette Heyer writes her tale during the German occupation, resulting in an incredibly accurate personal account. Excerpt: "The English-speaking public is generally well informed concerning the part played in the war by the Belgian troops. The resistance of our small field army at Liège, before Antwerp, and on the Yser has been praised and is still being praised wherever the tale runs. This is easy enough to understand. The fact that those 100,000 men should have been able to hold so long in check the forces of the first military Empire in Europe, and that a great number of them, helped by new contingents of recruits and led by their young King, should still be fighting on their native soil, must appeal strongly to the imagination."

Book Behind the Lines

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jeff Miller
  • Publisher : Jbm Publishing Company
  • Release : 2014
  • ISBN : 9780990689300
  • Pages : 442 pages

Download or read book Behind the Lines written by Jeff Miller and published by Jbm Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During WWI, the Commission for Relief in Belgium (CRB) initiated, organized, and supervised the largest food and relief drive the world had ever known. Working in concert with its counterpart in Belgium, the Comité National, the CRB fed and clothed for four years more than 9 million Belgians and northern French trapped behind German lines. Because the United States had declared its neutrality at the start of the war, young idealistic Americans volunteered to be CRB delegates and go into German-occupied Belgium to guarantee the imported food would not be taken by the Germans. The interlacing stories of German brutality, Belgian resistance, and the Americans of the CRB, all began back in those chaotic days of August 1914, when the Germans attacked Belgium on their way to France. Few could have guessed it then, but the invasion was a topping domino that caused a tumbling together of extraordinary people into a chain reaction of life-and-death situations far from the trenches and killing fields of World War I. And hanging in the balance were millions of civilian lives. It is a story that few have heard. The nonfiction Behind the Lines covers the time from August through December 1914. Using lively personal details, the book follows a handful of young CRB delegates; a twenty-two-year-old Belgian woman; two U.S. diplomats; a Belgian businessman and a priest who team up to fight the German occupation; and the head of the CRB, Herbert Hoover.

Book excerpt: ""It is the plain matter-of-fact story of Belgian life under German rule. Many more people will be tempted to praise the glory of our soldiers. But, if the incidents of conquered Belgium's life are not recorded in good time, they might escape notice. People might forget that, besides the 150,000 to 200,000 heroes who are now waging war for Belgium on the Western front, there are 7,500,000 heroes who are suffering for Belgium behind the German lines, in the close prison of guarded frontiers, cut off from the whole world, separated alike from those who are fighting for their deliverance and from those who have sought refuge abroad."" This book is part of the World War One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting new and old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis. The series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this tragic yet fascinating period of human history.
