LEE, D., Petain's Jewish Children. French Jewish Youth and the Vichy Regime, 1940-1942. Oxford University Press, 2014. 290p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Historical Monographs. Petain's Jewish Children is such a gripping and valuable study, exposing the fact that, even in such an increasingly hostile landscape, certain French Jews still felt that they could survive and even thrive. What Daniel Lee's book reveals is that, under Vichy, neither Frenchness nor Jewishness was ever a fixed identity, and that for a short while, even in a climate that sought to tear them apart, more than a few still saw the possibility for a productive symbiosis.
