Story0
Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais was an 18th-century French inventor, famed playwright, and upstart near-aristocrat in the court of King Louis XVI. In 1776, he conceived an audacious plan to send aid to the American rebels. What's more, he convinced the king to bankroll the project, and singlehandedly carried it out. By war's end, he had supplied Washington's army with most of its weapons and powder, though he was never paid or acknowledged by the United States. To some, he was a dashing hero - a towering intellect who saved the American Revolution. To others, he was pure rogue.

Before the Second World War, Josephine Baker (1906-1975) was one of the most famous performers in the world. She made her name dancing on the Parisian stage, but when war broke out she decided not to return to America. Instead, Baker turned spy for the French Secret Services. In this engaging, deeply researched study, Hanna Diamond tells the full story of Baker’s actions for the French and Allied powers in World War Two.

« Je dédie ce livre à toutes celles et ceux qui ont aimé EDF, qui n’acceptent plus le montant de leurs factures d’électricité et souhaitent une transition énergétique sans la punition que l’on veut leur faire subir. Comme dans la fable, l’Allemagne a souvent l’image de la fourmi industrieuse et la France, celle de la cigale insouciante. Force est de constater que dans le domaine de l’énergie, les polarités sont inversées.
