Memoirs
Memoirs is the candid, compelling autobiography of René Lévesque — journalist, war correspondent, political visionary, and one of the most influential figures in modern Canadian history. With sharp insight and unmistakable honesty, Lévesque recounts his journey from the front lines of World War II reporting to the founding of the Parti Québécois and his tenure as Québec’s 23rd Premier.
Through personal stories, political battles, and reflections on identity, democracy, and independence, Lévesque offers a rare inside look at the passions and pressures that shaped a province and transformed a nation. Both intimate and historically significant, Memoirs stands as an essential read for anyone interested in Canadian politics, Québec history, or the life of a leader who dared to challenge the status quo.
** Signed by René Lévesque, on the opposite blank page, there is a newspaper clipping that is taped on with his signing event. The clipping has been left as it ties in with the autograph, also to avoid any damage to the page. The book also came to us with various newspaper clippings including his death in 1987. The newspaper clippings will be included with the book. A picture has been provided of the signing event and the autograph. **
