New York: Arcade Publishing, 1996. 1st English Language Edition [stated]. First Printing [stated]. Hardcover. 22 cm. [12],177, [3] pages. Footnotes. Corner of two pages folded and straightened, DJ slightly soiled. Francois Mitterrand decided to talk openly about his life, both personal and political. President for fourteen years, longer than anyone else in the history of the French Republic, Mitterrand was interested not in constructing an elaborate memorial to himself in words but in leaving behind a living testament. He therefore turned to someone whom he knew and trusted, Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel, a close friend of many years, to join him in a vibrant, vigorous exchange. The topics they discuss are childhood, faith, war, power, writing, and those moments that shape and sometimes define us as people. Mitterrand and Wiesel's dialogue is spontaneous, thoughtful, lyrical, blunt, far-reaching, and candid, whether it involves controversial moments in Mitterrand's political career, Wiesel's memories of Auschwitz, the importance of family and religion in their lives, or simply their favorite books and walks.

Minor edge soiling noted. Includes Illustrations, Chapter 1--Lyon '87; The Funny War; Vichy; Sonderbehandlung; Lyon '43; Lyon 44: Last Train to Auschwitz' Acknowledgments, Note 0n Sources; Notes; and Index. Ted Morgan obtained copies of the ten thousand pages of secret documents prepared for the Barbie trial, including several hundred depositions that were not made public, and it is from this source that he can relate so many hitherto untold narratives about the occupation in Lyon. An Uncertain Hour is an involving journey into the hidden landscape of an occupied city. It includes definitive accounts of the capture of resistance leader Jean Moulin, the raid on the Jewish welfare office in Lyon, the seizure of the children's home in Izieu, the struggle for the mountain redoubt of Vercors, and the hallucinatory itinerary of the last train to Auschwitz. It explores the minds and motives of the Vichy leaders and German occupiers, moving from their gilded offices to prison cells and furtive meeting places. The illustrations in this book are the work of the German artist Joseph Beuys (1921 - 1986). Beuys joined the Hitler Youth and then the Luftwaffe, and became a dive-bomber pilot in 1941. Stationed in Nazi-occupied Crimea in 1943, his JU-87 was hit by Russian flak. Beuys returned to Germany with severe injuries and combat fatigue, and began to produce sculpture and objects that were his own postmodern "Horrors of War." Beuys conveys a powerful sense of what war is and what war does than traditional military artists who paint battles. More
