About this audiobook

Renowned for his political ideology, 'Gaullism', Charles André Joseph Marie de Gaulle (1890-1970) had a major influence on French politics.

Amongst the Frenchman's most famous quotes are, "The cemetery is filled with indispensable men." and "I cannot prevent the French from being French." A carefully crafted collection, ́100 quotes by Charles de Gaulle ́ contains 100 of his most celebrated quotes.

This collection is ideal for anyone looking for a bit of philosophical guidance. Charles André Joseph Marie de Gaulle (1890-1970) was a French general and statesman, who led the Free French during World War Two and went on to become the architect of the Fifth Republic. A decorated officer of the First World War, De Gaulle went on to chair the Provisional Government of the French Republic from 1944-1946. Retiring in the early 1950s, he wrote his ‘War Memoirs’, and in 1958, was re-appointed Prime Minister of France and founded the Fifth Republic. De Gaulle was elected President of France later that year and remained President until his resignation in 1969.
