More about the book
"Promise at Dawn begins as the story of a mother's sacrifice: alone and poor, she fights fiercely to give her son the very best. Romain Gary chronicles his childhood in Russia, Poland, and on the French Riveria; he recounts his adventurous life as a young man fighting for France in World War II. But above all he tells the story of the love for his mother that was his very life, their secret and private planet, their wonderland born out of a mother's murmur into a child's ear, a promise whispered at dawn of future triumphs and greatness, of justice and love“--Provided by publisher.
