Reviews for The French

This is a book for anyone who has ever found the French elusive, obstinate, irritating, perplexing or simply enthralling. The French magazine L'Usine Nouvelle says that Zeldin, Oxford don and author of several brilliant thematic studies of French social history, 'understands us better than our politicians, our employers, our wives and our children'. And so he does. Unputdownable. (Kirkus UK)
