Rarely explored aspects of his life will be uncovered: his childhood as the son of a Bishop and a mother who didn't love him. His near death experiences in the battlefields of the Great War. His campaign against the IRA in the 1920s, which gained him the respect of the Republicans he fought.
Charles De Gaulle was the leader of Free France from 1940-1944, and was the dominant figure of France during the Cold War era. His memory continues to influence French Politics.
