Defying Vichy, newly published by The History Press and beautifully written by Robert Pike, is the first book I believe, to have been written in English charting the history and the stories of the Occupation and Resistance in the Dordogne. Stories that may well be widely known in that beautiful corner of South West France but now can be enjoyed by a wider audience. And deservedly so, as this is an area of France that the Allies did not reach. This is an area of France that was liberated by the Resistance formed in that region.
