This diary by the general director of the General Union of the Jews of France (UGIF), established by the Vichy government, reveals his efforts to aid and protect the Jews of France. The diary also shows his struggle to understand the Vichy government's efforts to turn the Jews into pariahs of the society he so cherished.
