A French Officer's Diary: 23 August 1939 to 1 October 1940 is a historical account of the early stages of World War II, as seen through the eyes of a French officer named Barlone. The book is a compilation of diary entries written by Barlone during this period, and provides a unique perspective on the events that unfolded in France and Europe during this time.The book begins on August 23, 1939, just days before Germany invaded Poland and officially began the war. Barlone's diary entries describe the initial reactions of the French military and government to the outbreak of war, as well as the preparations being made for a potential conflict.As the war progresses, Barlone's diary entries become more detailed and personal, describing his experiences on the front lines and his interactions with other soldiers and officers. He also provides insights into the political and social climate in France at the time, including the growing tensions between the Vichy government and the Free French forces.Throughout the book, Barlone's writing is both informative and engaging, providing readers with a firsthand account of one of the most tumultuous periods in modern history. Whether you are a history buff or simply interested in learning more about World War II, A French Officer's Diary is a fascinating and informative read.Barlone Served With The French Army On The Maginot Line In 1939 And 1940, And Fought In The Campaigns Of May-June 1940.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
