Reads like a Spy Novel.

I started this book while researching for a paper on de Gaulle's Algerian policy 1958-1962. Even after I realized that this book dealt only with de Gaulle's role in the French Resistence during WWII, I couldn't put it down! This is one of the best, most engrosing history books I have ever read. I highly recommend it.
