Who said the French are "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys"? Well, maybe they did throw down the towel pretty quickly when Adolf came to call in WWII but they didn't stop fighting. Resistance came in many forms and the allies would not have advanced as quickly had it not been for the sabotage of the Free French and the millions of small acts of both active and passive resistance by ordinary French citizens taking extreme risks with their lives. Here is a dramatic adventure story called "A Question of Resistance" set in war time France. Although it is fiction it has been well researched and many of the hard facts in the book actually happened including some of the horrifying acts performed by the Nazi occupying forces.
