- This book examines the nature of the relationship between Vichy and its Jewish citizens. By exploring the possibility for some Jews to coexist with Vichy and to contribute to its programme for renewal, Lee's research challenges dominant interpretations of Jewish life in Occupied France, exposing instead the heterogeneity of French Jewry and the manifold ways in which young French Jews experienced Vichy's early years. For this analysis, that took four years to complete, Lee amassed evidence from more than forty public and private archives across France, Israel and the USA and conducted more than seventy oral history interviews.
