My Life in Politics

Autor Jacques Chirac Traducere de Catherine Spencer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 noi 2012

The disarmingly honest autobiography of Jacques Chirac - two time president of France and charismatic international statesman—as he discusses his life, world politics, G.W. Bush, and current French president Nicolas Sarkozy Along with Mikhail Gorbachev, Helmut Kohl, and Francois Mitterand, Jacques Chirac is one of the most iconic statesman of the twentieth century. Two time president of France, mayor of Paris, and international politician, he's a charismatic and highly opinionated figure. In Chirac, he speaks candidly for the first time about many of the gravest issues surrounding his time in power, from the lead-up to the Iraq War to France's nuclear testing, and reflects on the future of France in international politics.
