Synopsis
This ambitious survey draws together the two major wars of decolonization fought by France in Indochina and Algeria (as well as the lesser but far from insignificant military operations in Madagascar, Tunisia and Morocco) into a single integrated account. It examines traditional French attitudes to empire, and how these changed under the pressure of events; the military operations themselves; the collapse of the Fourth Republic and the return of de Gaulle; and the final drama of French withdrawal from Algeria and the 'ethnic cleansing' of its European settler population.

From the Back Cover
The Wars of French Decolonization is the second title to be published in the ambitious new series that offers wide-ranging studies of specific wars, and distinct phases of warfare, from the close of the Middle Ages to the present day. The series aims to advance the current integration of military history into the academic mainstream. To that end, the books are not merely traditional campaign narratives, but examine the causes course and consequences of major conflicts, in their full international political, diplomatic, social and ideological contexts.
