This study is a scholarly biography of one of France's foremost
political leaders. In a career which ran from the 1880s to the
1930s, one of the most formative periods of modern French history,
Poincare held the principal offices of state. He played crucial
roles in France's entry into the Great War, the organisation of the
war effort, the peace settlement, the reparations question, the
occupation of the Ruhr and the reorganisation of French finances in
the 1920s. His life and work is surrounded by controversy and myth,
from 'Poincare-la-guerre' to 'Poincare-le-franc', which this book
dissects. Using a host of new archival material, Professor Keiger
explores the historiography of the man and his times and reveals,
somewhat surprisingly, how animal rights and feminism could be as
important to him as party politics and public finance.
