520    A valuable account of what one significant and perceptive 
       Frenchman experienced during the protracted disgrace of 
       France as a vassal state of Nazi Germany.  Publishers 
       Weekly In 1939, the 65-year-old French political economist
       Charles Rist was serving as advisor to the French 
       government and consultant to the international banking and
       business world. As France anxiously awaited a German 
       invasion, Rist traveled to America to negotiate embargo 
       policy. Days after his return to Paris, the German 
       offensive began and with it the infamous season of 
       occupation. Retreating to his villa in Versailles, Rist 
       turned his energies to the welfare of those closest to him,
       while in his diary he began to observe the unfolding of 
       the war. Here the deeply learned Rist investigates the 
       causes of the disaster and reflects on his countrys fate, 
       placing the behavior of the people and the elite in 
       historical perspective. Though well-connected, Rist and 
       his family and friends were not exempt from the perils and
       tragedies of war, as the diary makes clear. Season of 
       Infamy presents a distinctive, closely-observed view of 
       life in France under the occupation.
