As a politician between the two World Wars, Petain became a key figure in French military policy and, after the fall of France, he became head of the collaborationist Vichy Government and was sentenced to death for treason at the end of the war. This is a reassessment of Petain, which not only explores his complex personality, but also throws light on the role of the army in French politics, the character of the French right, the political make-up of the Vichy regime and the very nature of resistance, patriotism and collaboration.
