2020 – Année de Gaulle130th anniversary of his birth
80th anniversary of the Call fromLondon on 18th June 194050th anniversary of his death
Yvonne Salmon (1885-1965) wrote thisbook in 1943, a very early biography ofGeneral de Gaulle, for Alliance FrançaiseUK members and for British teenagers.The authors of the two prefaces to thisnew edition are respectively a FrançaisLibre, later historian, and the director ofAlliance Française de Londres. This edition contains the recoveredoriginal typescript for the book andhandwritten annotations by de Gaullehimself.
« Voici une des toutes premièresbiographies consacrées au Général quioffre l’étonnante singularité d’avoir étérévisée, la plume à la main, et corrigée parde Gaulle lui-même.
Son auteur ? Yvonne Salmon, Françaisede Grande-Bretagne, traductrice estimablede Thomas Hardy, fut Secrétaire Généralede l’Alliance Française à Londres de 1920à 1945.
La reproduction en fac-similé des pages du« tapuscrit » original annoté par de Gaulleet de sa lettre de remerciements, sauvéspar le Musée français des Lettres et desManuscrits, lui ajoute une valeur d’émotion. »
