This article discusses the book "The Dreyfus Case. By the Man Alfred Dreyfus and His Son Pierre Drefus," edited by Donald C. McKay. Alfred Dreyfus was a young officer of Alsatian birth, whose family had long been ardently Francophile and whose brilliant record in the military schools had won him an appointment to the General Staff, an almost unheard-of distinction for a Jew. He was rich, happily married, at the threshold of an enviable career. The discovery, In 1894, of the borderean, the famous letter in which Esterhazy announced to the German Ambassador that he was sending him certain French military documents, necessitated an investigation and a criminal.
