Dutch-language publications produced during the German Occupation

the archives of the Centre de Réchèrches et d'Ètudes
Historiques de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale in Brussels. The debates
on tactics and ideologies portray the conflict for followers by
religious groups, as well as democratic, socialist, and communist
organizations.

Extraordinarily detailed entries on Shaw's daily life.
