If any modern democratic leader has believed in the "great man''
theory of history and acted self-consciously in accordance with it,
it was surely de Gaulle. On both occasions when he came to power it
was in his own right, as a ``providential figure'', not as the
representative of a political or social movement. In office, his
wielding of power was, by modern standards, remarkably personal;
and his impact on France, and on Europe, was immense. He is a
natural subject for Profiles in Power.
