Pour notre liberté et pour la vôtre (“For our freedom and for yours”) (2012)
"After centuries of fighting, unions and successive dismantling, Poland had only been united since 1919. In 1939, a heightened sense of patriotism opposed the invasion and destruction by Hitler and Stalin of everything that embodied this nation. One of the priorities of the Polish government in exile was therefore to prepare the renewal of the nation.

Exhibitions • 2012
19 December 2012 to 6 April 2013 at the Maison du Patrimoine in Villard-de-Lans.
This exhibition followed the publication of our book Des Résistants polonais en Vercors (Polish Resistance Fighters in the Vercors), from which it draws much of its inspiration in terms of structure, text and illustrations. Le Dauphiné Libéré (regional newspaper) described it as ""very well documented, with a wealth of photos, original documents, letters, telegrams and class notebooks”. Chantal Carlioz, Mayor of Villard, commented: ""It is not only the past that is honoured, it is peace between nations.”
A Polish version was created and presented in 2015 in Zakopane, Poland.
