Book Description
Joliment illustrée et délicieusement nostalgique, cette Histoire de France en images a été écrite en 1895 par Claude Auge et Maxime Petit. En préambule, ils expliquaient qu'on n'y trouverait "ni dates ni abstractions, mais une suite d'images accompagnées d'un texte court et très élémentaire" Grâce à de ravissantes gravures, on découvrait alors que nos ancêtres les Gaulois avaient mauvais caractère, que certains rois étaient bien cruels, que devant l'injustice et l'inégalité le peuple se révolta, que Napoléon était un grand monarque mais que vouloir dominer toute l'Europe le perdit, qu'après avoir reconstitué une armée puissante la France voyait arriver le XXe siècle avec optimisme... Qui oserait, aujourd'hui, enseigner de cette façon cette Histoire de France là ? Il fallait tout le talent de Max Gallo pour la mettre en perspective et montrer que, derrière la nostalgie, il y a aussi une certaine idée de la France.

Book Description
Napalm, incendiary gel that sticks to skin and burns to the bone, came into the world on Valentine’s Day 1942 at a secret Harvard war research laboratory. On March 9, 1945, it created an inferno that killed over 87,500 people in Tokyo—more than died in the atomic explosions at Hiroshima or Nagasaki. It went on to incinerate sixty-four of Japan’s largest cities. The Bomb got the press, but napalm did the work. After World War II, the incendiary held the line against communism in Greece and Korea—Napalm Day led the 1950 counter-attack from Inchon—and fought elsewhere under many flags. Americans generally applauded, until the Vietnam War. Today, napalm lives on as a pariah: a symbol of American cruelty and the misguided use of power, according to anti-war protesters in the 1960s and popular culture from Apocalypse Now to the punk band Napalm Death and British street artist Banksy. Its use by Serbia in 1994 and by the United States in Iraq in 2003 drew condemnation. United Nations delegates judged deployment against concentrations of civilians a war crime in 1980. After thirty-one years, America joined the global consensus, in 2011. Robert Neer has written the first history of napalm, from its inaugural test on the Harvard College soccer field, to a Marine Corps plan to attack Japan with millions of bats armed with tiny napalm time bombs, to the reflections of Phan Thi Kim Phuc, a girl who knew firsthand about its power and its morality.
