Description:
In six weeks in 1940, France was over-run by German troops and surrendered. One junior French general, refusing to accept defeat, made his way to England. On 18 June he spoke to his compatriots over the BBC, urging them to rally to him in London. At that moment, Charles de Gaulle entered into history. For the rest of the war, de Gaulle frequently bit the hand that fed him. He insisted on being treated as the true embodiment of France, and quarrelled violently with Churchill and Roosevelt. But through sheer force of personality and bloody-mindedness he managed to have France recognised as one of the victorious Allies.

For ten years after 1958 he was President of France's Fifth Republic, which he created and which endures to this day. His pursuit of 'a certain idea of France' challenged American hegemony, took France out of NATO and twice vetoed British entry into the European Community. His controversial decolonization of Algeria brought France to the brink of civil war and provoked several assassination attempts. Julian Jackson's magnificent biography reveals this the life of this titanic figure as never before. No previous biography has depicted his paradoxes so vividly. Much of French politics since his death has been about his legacy, and he remains by far the greatest French leader since Napoleon.

Worth it!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Great product. Great price. Used for myself and a friend for her first 5k race. I also let me 3yr old daughter wear some for her 1 mile fun run. They lasted throughout the day/race. My recommendation if you buy. Cut the single piece into 3 separate. Nose, one for each side and apply in 3 separate sections. It takes a touch longer BUT it is easier to apply. Especially if your face is smaller and it’s easier to handle.

Rave Freckles!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
I got these for a Rave. They were very cute once I figured out the best way to put them on. I had to go through 2 before I figured it out. They stayed on well (as well as any temp tattoo can). If you have trouble getting them off, just get some facial oil cleanser! They were cute and I got lots of compliments.

Easy application
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Lasts all day. Is a bit sticky to the touch once applied (which actually helps keep my glasses from slipping). Fairly easy to remove with some oil and a cloth, didn't try removal wipes that come with them.

These are very fun and cute! We have used them on a number of occasions. I originally purchased them for my nieces to wear at Pride but we've whipped them out several times since, just for fun!
