De Gaulle Vs. Yankees: How the General saved France, destroyed USA and changed the world (Uchronia).

What if Charles de Gaulle, thwarting the plots of the USA and the Dulles brothers, had accomplished the 1958 Revolution ? What if Colombey's hermit had carried out the extraordinary program he had announced with his vibrant voice in Algiers, Mostaganem and elsewhere ? What if the famous General, faithful to his promise, had granted the Arab-Berber and sub-Saharan populations political equality, but also economic and social progress, in order to build the great fraternal Republic that so many citizens dreamed of in France and Africa ? The face of the world, and of course that of France, would have been changed... This is the staggering hypothesis that De Gaulle Vs. Yankees explores.

Author of essays and articles that have profoundly renewed the story of Franco-African decolonization, Alexandre Gerbi unravels here the weft of real history and turns it around. Through a thrilling epic that is both an uchronic fresco and a philosophical-political tale, the secret origins of the Fifth Republic are revealed in their depths, with their dreams engulfed. Thus their major issues, forgotten but terribly current, are enlightened. So many keys essential to understand, finally, the crisis that gnaws our time...
