THIS BOOK COULD not have been written without the help of Phillip Jackson, who endured hours of interviews over the telephone and in person in Paris over several years. I will be forever indebted to him. He also allowed me to use many of his extraordinary photographs.
His daughter, Loraine Riemer, was extremely helpful and generous with her time and provided crucial family letters and other primary sources.
I am also indebted to Joe Manos and his family, Francis Deloche de Noyelle, the late Fritz Molden, a truly great Austrian, and his wife Hanna, Suzie Jackson, and Alain Sollier. Amy Squiers spent weeks transcribing interviews with Phillip Jackson and others. Ben Faller helped with picture research. John Snowdon took beautiful portraits yet againan author could not hope to have a better colleague and friend.
The staffs of the following institutions helped me navigate a vast maze of archive material: the Massachussetts General Hospital, the American Hospital of Paris, the UK National Archives, US National Archives, the Bundesarchiv, the Bibliothque Nationale de Paris, and the Chteau de Vincennes military archives where extraordinary assistance was provided in tracking down elusive resistance records.
It has been a pleasure to work yet again with the hugely professional team at Crown, in particular Claire Potter and my editor, Kevin Doughten. My agent, Jim Hornfischer, also showed great faith in this project from the very start.
My wife, Robin, who came up with the title and was critical in so many other ways, and my son, Felix, were both, as always, supportive beyond belief.
