Title: Mémoires d'un foyalais
Description: "Notwithstanding their self-serving aspect, these political memoirs of a Martinique political figure, a member of the colored bourgeoisie and a lawyer by training, provide historians with important testimony of a generation whose decisive action in favor of départementalisation stemmed from their adhesion to France libre during WWII. Beautifully written and filled with interesting observations on 20th-century Martinican society"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
