Alfred Dreyfus

Maurice Samuels

On January 5, 1895, Captain Alfred Dreyfus's cries of innocence were drowned out by a mob shouting 'Death to Judas!'. In this book, Maurice Samuels gives readers new insight into Dreyfus himself - the man at the center of the affair. He tells the story of Dreyfus's early life in Paris, his promising career as a French officer, the false accusation leading to his imprisonment on Devil's Island, the fight to prove his innocence that divided the French nation, and his life of quiet obscurity after World War I.
