Very good condition, small stains on the cover
André Géraud called Pertinax is the key witness to the collapse of 1940,
From the Armistice of 1918 to that of 1940, the great international journalist André Géraud, known by his pen name Pertinax, closely observed all those who mattered in the Republic: politicians, diplomats, bankers, industrialists or military. In exile in New York during the Occupation period, he drew from his diary a polemical book, “The Gravediggers,” which appeared in 1943, and which is a major document on the interwar period, for which he provides a vivid tableau, served by a portrait art and attention to detail.
Written to instruct future generations, never reissued since Liberation.
