He developed a close relationship with Mosley during the Mosleyâ€™s residence in France. Mosley was an important British politician of the 1930s who rose to prominence with his creation of the British Union of Fascists political party. He secretly married Diana Mitford in Berlin with Adolph Hitler as a witness. With the outbreak of World War II Mosley was arrested and imprisoned. A Germanophile Benoist-Mechin wrote a highly regarded five volume history of the German Army and was a fascinating character with many sides. He was a classical music composer who advised his friend James Joyce providing the musical transcription of "Little Harry Hughes" photographed for episode 17 of Ulysses and published an early French translation of Molly Bloom's monologue from Ulysses as well as a Marcel Proust scholar who was personally knew Proust; a reporter heading a European news bureau; an adviser to William Randolph Hearst on his art purchases for Hearst Castle in San Simeon; and an aspiring writer and accomplished translator well regarded in the Paris literary circles of 1920s.
