Intimate biography of Jean Moulin by his sister
469 pages
Presses de la Cité

This edition of the biography of Jean Moulin (1899-1943) by his sister, Laure Moulin, remains an irreplaceable study to understand the origins, training, and motivations of the man and the resistance fighter. A witness to his youth as well as to his administrative and political career, Laure Moulin was also the confidante and the first secretary of Jean Moulin during the war. She deciphered for the “head of the army of shadows” many secret codes, and carried out several sensitive missions, while also keeping her manuscripts and the most compromising papers. This intimate perspective, nourished by a large number of documents, makes it possible to revive a figure in history, rather than a legend-hero.
