This, the thirteenth book in the Officers & Soldiers series, shows the French Army during the Phoney War and the French campaign in May-June 1940.

Continuing the work - started two years ago by Andre Joineau in the two volumes dealing with the 1914-18 armies - given over to an almost exhaustive survey of French Army uniforms and outfits during the two World Wars, this volume shows almost sixty colour plates with no less than 300 uniforms, several dozen insignia and equipment illustrations.
