Within two months uf the outbreak of the Franco-German war in July 1870 the German troops were besieging Paris. The siege lasted for four months until lack of food caused the French to surrender.
This programme, compiled from contemporary newspapers, letters and diaries, gives a full account of the grim business, including the use of balloons and pigeons to keep Paris in touch with the relieving armies which never came, and the killing of zoo animals, rats. cats, and dogs. to feed the starving and freezing people.
