Yves Dupont was born in 1922 at Paris, where he spent his
childhood. He was educated at the College de Royan on the
southwest coast of France north of Bordeaux. In early 1941,
shortly after the outbreak of war, he joined the French Colonial
Army in North Africa, where he became a practicing Catholic,
and later fought alongside the American Army there, in Italy,
and in France and Germany. During the bitter winter of 1944
he received the Croix de Guerre in Alsace. After the War, he
lived several years in Paris and then left France for Australia,
where he currently lives with his wife of English birth and their
four children.
In 1938 at the age of 16, the author read his first book of
prophecy; it predicted the death of Pope Pius XI for the spring
of 1939. When this prediction came about, he decided to in-
vestigate prophecy more thoroughly. Two years later, at the
age of 1 8 and while still in school, he wrote a prophetical "sum-
mary." That summary stated: "The war will soon break out.
France will be defeated. The nαzιs will pitch their tents on the
banks of the River Loire." The master on duty that evening
found him writing this, read it, and commented, "My young
fellow, don't waste your time with such nonsense." "The French
people," Mr. Dupont reminisces, "from the Prime Minister
down to the school janitor, were supremely confident that the
'powerful' French Army would dispose of Hitler within a few
months if he were rash enough to go to war. But the war broke
out six months later. After a few months of the 'phony' war
(the war of skirmishes), the nαzιs struck in May 1940, and
the French Army was defeated in three weeks, completely
destroyed in six. Not only did the nαzιs reach the Loire, they
even went farther down, to the Garonne. Four long years of
occupation had begun."
"After the War, I resumed my prophetical studies. By then, I
was aware that prophecies have a far deeper significance than
a mere listing of events to come. I could see too that the post-
war political scene showed the same errors and faults which
had been responsible for the rise of Hitler." Les Derniers Jours
des Derniers Temps (The Last Days of the Last Times), the
author's first book on prophecy, was published in Paris in 1959,
and the second one, a pro manuscripto book, in Belgium in
1962. At Melbourne in 1962 he also began publishing World
Trends, a Catholic quarterly of comment on events in the
Church and in the political and social arenas (his popular
article "Garabandal" has been republished from World Trends
by TAN Books and Publishers). "My observations of the
proceedings of Vatican II prompted me to express fears and
misgivings for the future of the Church." Rereading those early
issues of World Trends, one is profoundly impressed by the
accuracy of Mr. Dupont's analyses at that time. Indeed, his
prognostications of 1962 to 1965 are as fresh and vigorous
today as they were then. At a time of "surface calm" in the
Church, many of his readers were incredulous at his predictions
of trouble and dissention soon to come. He believes the fears
of that time have now been vindicated and the Church is split.
He believes also that we are entering the period predicted by
the prophecies in this book.
In presenting the present volume, Mr. Dupont states that
he has enough material for four such books. The response this
one receives will determine his authoring others.
