- Summary
- To perpetuate the memory of what happened on the Plateau, the municipality of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon opened a memorial-museum for historical and educational purposes to pass the legacy of the Righteous on to future generations. The orginal French version of this catalog was published in conjunction with the opening of the memorial-museum. It retraces the unique history of the Plateau (from Ardèche to the Haute-Loire), a land of welcome and refuge. With an abundance of documents and period photos, this catalog elaborates upon the main themes of the permanent exhibition. -- Publisher's description.
