Don Cook's De Gaulle Biography
Intermingles Arrogance and Skills

Charles De Gaulle wrote
his name indelibly in 20th
Century world history. He
was the master in France
after the last world war and
he triggered an activity that

made his leadership of a
government in exile among
the leading factors in the
battles against Hitlerism.
He antagonized, yet domi-
nated. He was at odds with

the world leaders, Roosevelt
and Churchill, yet won ad-
miration.
His arrogance and skills
are impressively depicted in
a magnificent biography,
"Charles De Gaulle" by Don
Cook (Putnam).
Cook has much to say
about the critical attitudes
toward De Gaulle by his al-
lies in the war against
Nazism. Cook resorts to one
interesting quotation from
Charles De Gaulle about
"ally/ adversary" Churchill:
"A great man? Why, he's
selfish, he's arrogant, he
thinks he is the center of the
universe . . . he . . . yes, he's

JERUSALEM (ZINS) —
The Jewish population of
Guatemala has been var-
iously estimated at some-
where between 1,300 and
2,000. It is probably closer
to the lower estimate.
The first Jews of recent
history arrived from Ger-

many after 1880. They were
followed in the 1920s by
Sephardic Jews of Mid-
Eastern origin and in the
pre-World War II era by a
wave of Ashkenazi Jews
from Europe.
Three congregations thus
came into being.

a great man."

De Gaulle in power and in
decline is efficiently por-
trayed by Cook, who has
covered the political and
military scene in Europe
since World War II. His
biography of De Gaulle is
the story of the era of Nazi
terrorism and the Western
European manipulations as
well as machinations.
Among the scores of per-
sonalities referred to are the
former French prime minis-
ters, Leon Blum, Pierre

Mendes-France, the former
having suffered a period in a
Nazi concentration camp,
the latter having escaped
from the Nazis after his ar-
rest. Mendes- France joined
De Gaulle in London after
his escape and was an oppo-
nent of De Gaulle when he
attained power in his native
land at the end of the war.
Of major interest in the
Cook biography is De Gaul-
le's antagonism to Israel
after the 1967 Six-Day War.
There was an exchange of
correspondence with David
Ben-Gurion, and here, too,
there was the arrogance of
the French leader. This
chapter in French-Israel re-
lations requires additional
comment which will be
made in a subsequent re-
view-addendum of the not-
able Cook biography.
