Publisher's Summary

Discover the remarkable life of Charles de Gaulle...
Free BONUS Inside!

Charles de Gaulle stands among the greatest statesmen in history. Even after the official French government collapsed under the weight of Nazi Germany, de Gaulle refused to accept defeat. He and his followers were pushed into exile, but still they fought on, never losing sight of an eventual victory over their oppressors.

This book delves into Charles de Gaulle’s extraordinary journey—from leading the Free French forces during World War II to playing a key role in the rebuilding of postwar France. It also follows his tenure as president, where he shaped the nation’s modern identity. He lived his life for France, and his own personal history is very much intertwined with the history of his nation. This book explores them both.

Discover a plethora of topics such as

  • Early Life in Paris
  • A Prisoner of War
  • Love, Marriage, and the Maginot Line
  • Free France
  • President de Gaulle
  • The Last Days of Charles de Gaulle
  • And much more!

So if you want a concise and informative book on Charles de Gaulle, simply scroll up and click the "Buy now" button for instant access!
