"Megan Koreman has written an exceptionally lucid history of Dutch-Paris in The Escape Line." -- Donald Reid, European History Quarterly

"In this meticulously researched study, Megan Koreman brings to light the activities of the Dutch-Paris group, which consisted of an estimated 330 men and women resisting the Nazi authorities during World War II." -- Saskia Coenen Snyder, Journal of Modern History

"The book is compelling, engagingly written, and solidly researched." -- Valerie Deacon, NYU-Shanghai, H-Net reviews

"The author is a deft narrator, drawing on original documents and survivors' accounts, and despite the grim realities of living in Nazi-occupied territory, there are enough lighter moments to give readers a well-rounded perspective. There is an enormous amount of detail....An invaluable account of genuine heroism in the midst of one of the most terrifying episodes of human history."--Kirkus, starred review

"A virtue of this well-researched study is its lack of hyperbole: the narrative is flat, factual....Independent scholar Koreman simply documents what happened, providing details and allowing readers to make the connections....This fine study will be primarily of interest to students of World War II and the Holocaust."--David Keymer, Library Journal

"The Resistance in France continues to fascinate scholars and hold an important place in the history and memory of wartime France. Megan Koreman adds to this literature with a carefully researched and detailed account of one network that never took up arms and yet fought against the Nazis. The study in itself adds to the historiography ... Koreman's approach clearly takes a wide view that encompasses humanitarian resistance and rescue as well as the activities of men and women, perhaps demonstrating how much our understanding and definition of resistance has changed over time.The Escape Line paints a richly detailed portrait of what ordinary people were able to do to help others in extraordinary circumstances." -- Shannon L. Fogg, H-France
