Price clipped, DJ nicely in archival wraps with minor tears to the edges; interior clean. Julian Green (1900 ? 1998) was an American writer, who wrote primarily in French and was the first non-French national to be elected to the Académie française. Most of Green's books focused on the ideas of faith and religion as well as hypocrisy. Several dealt with the southern United States, and he strongly identified with the fate of the Confederacy, characterizing himself throughout his life as a "Sudiste". He inherited this version of patriotism from his mother, who came from a distinguished southern family. Some years before Julian's birth, when Julian's father was offered a choice of posts (with his bank) in either Germany or France, Julian's mother urged the choice of France on the grounds that the French were "also a proud people, recently defeated in war, and we shall understand one another.".
