Publisher's Description
Although the primary focus of this book is French politics - from an aging Charles De Gaulle (who is featured in the longest series of photos in the book, in keeping with his dominance of the actual political scene), to Jean-Marie le Pen, to Jacques Chirac - the scope of the project is global. Nelson Mandela, John F, Kennedy, Haile Selassie, Che Guevara, Salvador Allende, Martin Luther King, Richard Nixon, and David Ben Gurion all appear alongside other, lesser-known politcal figures. Each man (and the two women) are introduced with a brief exposition in French.
