First published in 1955 France: The Fourth Republic is the first book to provide an account of the working constitution of the Fourth French Republic. It attempts to capture the post war problems, characteristics of French political life, attitudes of French politicians, and shifting moods of public opinion.

First published in 1960 and this revised edition in 1965, The Fifth French Republic tries to place the French Constitution of 1958 in its political context. It discusses crucial themes to understand the nature of the evolution of "de Gaulle's Republic" and the political climate that it has produced.
