Éditions France-Empire

France-Empire is an independent French publishing house, created in 1945 by Yvon Chotard.

History

In 1945, at the end of the Second World War, Éditions France-Empire began publishing works about the years 1939-1945, then the period of decolonization. The publishing house was created from the funds of the Sève et Morat. In the 1960s and 1970s, France-Empire was influenced notably by the success of a series of works by journalist Christian Bernadac devoted to deportation during the Holocaust, which was by far the biggest seller at the time.[1]

Éditions France-Empire then pursued this path by including in their catalog essays, novels, biographies and memoirs in the historical domain. The company has belonged to the group Desquenne et Giral (euronext) since 1990.

Éditions France-Empire was deregistered on March 26, 2013.[2]
