Colette Baudoche

Excerpt from Colette Baudoche: Histoire d'une Jeune Fille de Metz As a child Barres saw the Prussian invasion of France, and also the endless processions of those who, in 1871 and 1872, left Alsace - Lorraine rather than come under the yoke of their traditional enemy. These sad scenes left a deep and indelible impression on his mind, and explain to a certain extent his attitude towards Germany throughout his life.
