Paris: Reseau de Souvenir [Remembrance Network], printed by Imprimerie Tournon & Cie, c1965. Unknown, presumed first edition, first printing. Wraps. Format is approximately 6 inches by 8 inches. 16 pages, including covers. Illustrated cover. Illustrations. Cover has some wear and soiling. Most of the text is in English. This brochure was produced by the remembrance network thanks to the benevolent support of the Minister of Veterans Affairs and the General Tourism Commission. The memorial was designed by G. H. Pingusson. The memorial consists of three distinct components: The phase of silence [a walk through a garden enables the visitor to leave behind the noise and traffic of the city], the plunge into the unfamiliar [two steep and narrow flights of stone steps parallel to the arms of the Seine create a breach with the world of the living. Step by step, the familiar landscape of Paris is blotted out from sight], and the third phase--a Presence, in the tomb, at the entrance to a long gallery, the walls are covered with 200,000 facets sparkling with as many flames. There rests an unknown deported. Fat in the distance a single light reminds those who stand there that lost in thought that no sacrifice on earth is in vain. More

Quentin James Reynolds (April 11, 1902 – March 17, 1965) was a journalist and World War II war correspondent.

He also published an autobiography, By Quentin Reynolds. Katz and Aldouby were both ex-members of an Israeli underground movement, devoted for many years to the compilation of the most complete dossier of Eichmann in existence. Photographs, affidavits, testimonies, were gathered together; secret Nazi documents, even Eichmann’s tape-recorded ‘memoirs’, were traced, ‘borrowed’, copied and studied – and, on the capture of their subject, were placed in the hands of Quentin Reynolds. The result is this most authoritative and unique book. A biography which traces the life from schooldays to a well guarded prison in Israel of an insignificant Nazi who became Hitler's Minister of Death. More
New York, N.Y. PublicAffairs, 2000. First Paperback Edition Printing this Publisher [Stated]. Trade paperback. xiii, [1], 333, [5] pages. Cover has some wear and soiling. Black mark on bottom edge. Includes Foreword by Tom Brokaw, as well as Acknowledgments and Index. Topics covered include Drafted; Private Rooney; The Air War; The Land War; Germany, At Last; and Going Home. Andrew Aitken Rooney (January 14, 1919 – November 4, 2011) was an American radio and television writer who was best known for his weekly broadcast "A Few Minutes with Andy Rooney", a part of the CBS News program 60 Minutes from 1978 to 2011. His final regular appearance on 60 Minutes aired on October 2, 2011. Rooney was decorated with the Bronze Star Medal and Air Medal for his service as a war correspondent in combat zones during the war. His 1995 memoir My War chronicles his war reporting and recounts several notable historical events and people from a firsthand view, including the entry into Paris and the Nazi concentration camps. He describes how it shaped his experience both as a writer and reporter. CBS refused to broadcast his World War II memoir entitled "An Essay on War" in 1970, so Rooney quit CBS and read the opinion himself on PBS, which was his first appearance on television. That show won him his third Writers Guild Award. As a young correspondent for The Stars and Stripes, Andy Rooney flew bomber missions, arrived in France after the D-Day invasion, was in Paris for the Liberation, crossed the Rhine with the Allied forces, and was one of the first reporters into Buchenwald. My War is the story of a writer learning the craft of journalism. It is moving, suspenseful, and reflective. More
