Voltaire In Exile : The Last Years

Attribution
Ian Davidson
Publication Details
Book, 1st American ed, Grove Press, 2004
Description
In 1753, Voltaire-playwright, poet, philosopher and one of the most feted figures in Europe-was forced by Louis XV and his powerful mistress Madame Pompadour into exile, where he remained for the last twenty-five years of his life. By painstakingly translating the rich correspondence between Voltaire and his family, members of the Court at Versailles, and the French intellectual elite, Davidson allows us to discover Voltaire the artist, the campaigner, the aesthete, the lover, the humorist.

General Henri Guisan : Commander-in-Chief Of The Swiss Army In World War II

Attribution
by Willi Gautschi ; translated by Karl Vonlanthen
Publication Details
Book, Front Street Press, 2003
Description
During its darkest hour Switzerland was surrounded by aggressive fascist armies, with no allies within reach, its politicians quavering, and its people beginning to lose hope of retaining their freedom. The key to his military strategy was shifting the main strength of the Swiss Army to the Alps. His guidance, along with the Swiss system of universal male conscription, meant that the Germans, had they invaded, would have been fighting not just an army but a people.
