It is well and good that historians no longer spend all their efforts relating the glories and trials of political and military leaders. But Patrice Gueniffey believes that heroes still have something to tell us. He contrasts two of them, Napoleon Bonaparte and Charles de Gaulle, to better understand how individual exploits have shaped our world.
