Since the Sinai campaign, France had been Israel's ally, providing advanced weapons and granting political support and economic aid. When Charles de Gaulle returned to lead France in 1958 during the Algerian War, Israeli leadership faced a challenge to maintain the friendship in light of the President's insistence on re-establishing French influence in the Arab world. This book discusses their efforts and examines de Gaulle's uncompromising pursuit of French grandeur and the ramifications of this for the State of Israel.

The first comprehensive scholarly biography of Franco in English, presenting an objective and deeply researched account of the Spanish dictator's personal, professional, and political life.
Memphis, Tennessee is a city with a dark past -- a dwelling place for ghosts and a center for the cotton industry and slavery. Known for police corruption and racism, Memphis is where Martin Luther King, Jr. was murdered, where Elvis overdosed, and where the Dixie mafia centered their drug-smuggling operations in the '70s. Set in the present day, Burlesque Blues tells the story of an Army veteran and chef from New Orleans, Franco Chevalier, who travels to Memphis to solve the mysterious death of his father in a Beale Street club during a burlesque performance. Was his father looking into the ghosts that seem to haunt the old family estate in Memphis? Or was he on the trail to find the crown jewels of France, which his family supposedly helped to hide before the revolution? The burlesque dancers, lawyers, and professors that Franco comes in contact with seem to have their own agendas, covered with lies, and hidden by smoke. To find the answers, he must find the strength to steer away from temptation and overcome his own anxieties from the war. But will that be enough?
