  Julian Jackson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jackson then had his second crack at the title in November 1987 on the Chavez-Rosario undercard, and left the ring this time with a belt around his waist - the same WBA 154 lb (70 kg) title he had failed to win from McCallum the previous year.
Jackson then vacated his crown, moved up to 160 lb (73 kg), and was pitted against Herol 'Bomber' Graham for the middleweight division's vacant WBC title in Spain.
Jackson would then have a second but brief reign as WBC middleweight champion again, beating Agastine Cardamone by knockout in March 1995 to win the same belt vacated by McClellan, but then promptly losing the title in his first defense against Quincy Taylor in August of that year by a ninth-round knockout.

 Anthony Jones vs. Julian Jackson (May 24, 1998)
Jones floored Jackson near the end of the seventh and battered the ex-middleweight king so severely in the eighth, that referee Dale Grable was forced to issue a standing 8-count before eventually halting the contest.
Jackson was unable to block or slip the shots and when he did throw punches they were wide and looping.
Jackson opened up in the center of the ring but he missed badly and was an easy target for Jones' stiff counters.

 H-France Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
For example, Jackson writes that when in the confusion of the summer of 1940 French parliamentary deputies gave full powers to Pétain to revise the constitution, it was hardly a vote for an authoritarian regime, much less support for the as yet unborn regime of Vichy.
Jackson asserts that the writers who contributed to Drieu la Rochelle’s Nouvelle Revue Française, while not all collaborators, were nevertheless “aware of the implications of their decision, and the roster of contributions provides a gallery of the more celebrated writers willing to lend their name, at some level, to collaboration” (p.
Though Jackson rightly warns against generalizations and distinguishes among various socio-economic as well as geographic groups, it can perhaps safely be said that the great majority of the French were disaffected from Vichy much earlier than originally thought--perhaps as early as the winter of 1941-42.

Jackson shows, however, that the main reason was the bad intelligence that the French had, which caused them to send their best troops against a German feint.
Jackson convincingly puts to bed the Gaullist idea that the interwar Third Republic was a disaster for France and shows how France's national consciousness was dominated by the slaughter of the 1914-18 war.
Jackson also reminds us that the fall of France was the event that turned the war into a world war rather than a European one, as Italy and then Japan seized their chances to pick off allied interests.

 Review: France: The Dark Years, 1940-1945
Julian Jackson’s monumental history of Vichy is a powerful contribution to the historiography.
Jackson does this with his usual good judgement, framing the book with the debates of historians at the beginning and the construction of collective memories at the end.
A little later Jackson concedes that the function of French officials was to serve as mediators between the German authorities and the French people, protecting French sovereignty and French resources as far as possible.

 H-France Reviews
Even at the end of May 1940, Jackson notes, well beyond the German breakthrough on the Meuse river and with the Dunkirk evacuation underway, elements in the British government were seriously "exploring the possibility of peace"(p.208).
In short, Jackson rejects explanations for the defeat which suggest the French had it coming to them--if not for deep-seated character flaws, for incompetence--or because they were hopelessly outclassed by either their German enemy or their British ally.
Julian Jackson has become a leading historian of the Third French Republic, and for reasons that are all to be found in this his latest book.

 The Fall of France: The Nazi Invasion of 1940 -- book review
Then Jackson looks at how they all relate to each other and shows how each one can be seen as part of the defeat, while none of them can be singled out as the main cause.
Jackson shows, however, that the root cause was the bad intelligence that the French had, which caused them to send their best troops against a German feint.
Jackson refutes that brilliantly, saying that the war was actually quite winnable, had it been executed properly.

Jackson, a professor of history at the University of Wales-Swansea, spares no one in exploring not only the events of wartime France, but also developments in historical perspectives on the collaborationist Vichy regime and the Resistance.
Julian Jackson's history is the most distinguished account I've read on France during the period from 1940 through 1944.
Jackson clearly notes the intense dislike - if not outright hatred - of many French towards their German occupiers, noting that such sentiments may have played a decisive part in ensuring the survival of more French Jews than their counterparts in other Nazi-occupied countries.

Jackson, a historian of occupied France of the 1940s, weaves the particularities of de Gaulle's life into a clear picture of his "idea of France." Contemptuous of political quarrels, de Gaulle proved a cagey player who almost always got his way.
Jackson's narrative is astutely analytical about de Gaulle's calculated aloofness, and its application to the France he envisioned, from de Gaulle's rejection of surrender in 1940 to his recall to power in 1958 amid the imminence of a civil war.
Immensely controversial in life, de Gaulle is generally admired in death by the French, a trajectory Jackson dramatizes forcefully in this excellent introduction.

This exciting new book by Julian Jackson, a leading historian of twentieth-century France, charts the breathtakingly rapid events that led to the defeat and surrender of one of the greatest bastions of the Western Allies, and thus to a dramatic new phase of the Second World War.
Using eyewitness accounts, memoirs, and diaries to bring the story to life, Julian Jackson both recreates the intense atmosphere of the six weeks in May and June leading up to the Vichy regime, and unravels the historical evidence to produce a fresh answer to the perennial question of whether the fall of France was inevitable.

In his thorough monograph, University of Swansea historian Jackson (The Dark Years) begins with pre-war developments-French military innovations and battle strategy; Germany's plan to invade Belgium and France-before recounting the German breakthrough and defeat of British and French forces in May 1940.
It represents an excellent analysis of the complex of reasons which led to the catastrophe of 1940 and of the consequences of the defeat of France.
Julian Jackson is a specialist in the history of FRANCE, and, sadly, these remarks are based on a received information instead of recearch.
