Both authors fully made use of their expertise and spent three years gathering material from various sources. The book was co-written by Larry Collins, correspondent of Newsweek, and Dominique Lapierre, correspondent of Paris Match. So, how did Paris escape the fate of being burnt to the ground? This audio issue will explain the story to you in detail. "Is Paris burning?" was a question that Hitler bitterly put to his Chief of the General Staff on the day of the liberation of Paris on August 25, 1944. At that time, Paris continually faced the threat of destruction. Furthermore, forces both inside and outside of Paris were hostile towards one another and always in conflict. If Paris had fallen, he would have detonated all the bombs to reduce Paris to a pile of ruins. He issued orders for planting explosives in various places of importance in the city. Meanwhile, Hitler had made up his mind to implement a "scorched-earth policy" in Paris. However, Hitler had fallen into madness, demanding that his troops defend Paris at all costs, even to the last man. It wasn't until 1944, when Allied forces landed in Normandy, that Parisians saw their hopes for liberation realized.

From then on, Paris was under German occupation. In June 1940, he conquered Paris, the principal city in France. In the early days of World War II, Hitler swept across Europe and quickly occupied Poland, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium, and other countries. But did you know we almost lost the chance forever to see these beautiful places? When it comes to Paris, many people will think of its famous buildings: Notre Dame de Paris, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower, which are all must-see sites of interest. Paris is a famous city of fashion, art, culture, and romance.
