Formules assassines, traits d'humour, visions prophétiques, discours et réflexions ont fait la renommée de Clemenceau. Les lire ou les relire sont un régal pour l'esprit tant on découvre un autre homme derrière le « tombeur de ministères » des années 1880, le « briseur de grèves » de 1906, le Père la Victoire de 1918. Grâce à ce recueil, on découvre sa vie, de la Commune de Paris au traité de Versailles, en passant par la crise boulangiste, le scandale de Panama ou l'Affaire Dreyfus et tous ces combats républicains dont il fut un acteur majeur. Mis en scène par l'historien Jean Garrigues, fin connaisseur de l'action et du rôle de Clemenceau, surgit le portrait d'un grand homme d'État, véritable icône patriotique, passionnément laïque et démocrate, cocardier, rebelle et autoritaire, féministe et misogyne, rêveur et philosophe, amoureux et querelleur, drôle et sensible, féroce et tendre à la fois. Avant tout un homme libre. Ici sont rassemblées et commentées ses observations les plus fouillées, ses analyses les plus lucides, ses joutes oratoires les plus mémorables, ses formules les plus méchantes et ses remarques les plus mordantes.

There have been many biographies of Stalin, but the court that surrounded him is untravelled ground. Simon Sebag Montefiore, acclaimed biographer of Catherine the Great and her lover, prime minister and general Potemkin, has unearthed the vast underpinning that sustained Stalin. Not only ministers such as Molotov or secret service chiefs such as Beria, but men and women whose loyalty he trusted only until the next purge.
