L'Étoile du Déséret
L'Étoile du Déséret was a monthly French language newspaper published in France by LDS Church apostle John Taylor beginning in May 1851 and was printed in Paris. It continued until April 1852. On August 22, 1852, Taylor discussed the newspaper in his European mission report delivered in Salt Lake City, Utah Territory:
We also publish there a paper called "L'Étoile du Déséret" (The Star of Deseret.) It is got up in good style, and printed in new type. It is also stereotyped
an integrated man, one of whom political power was not an end in itself." Michael C. Reed speculates that, had Aubame become president instead of M'ba, he might have made the country more democratic. After his death, a Libreville high school was established in his name.
