Opis

What did the Treaty of Versailles mean to those who found themselves belonging to a new nation state? In this groundbreaking study, Alison Carrol draws on local, regional, and national archives to trace the return of Alsace to France after the border between France and Germany moved west and the Alsatian population became French citizens.

Recenzje

...this volume makes a valuable contribution to the literature on the history of Alsace and Alsatian regional conditions, especially in the interdisciplinary field of border studies.
