Born with Paris in 1910, it makes its studies with the college of Villeneuve-sur-Lot. After the economic crisis of 1926 - it is then 16 years old -, its family is ruined: he works as bank clerk then and animates the newspaper of the French Action in Villeneuve-sur-Lot, and the newspaper monarchist of Toulouse, the Express train of the South . In 1928, it founds the Counter-revolution , re-examined antimaconnic anti-semite, , anticommunist and opposed to the secret societies. In 1930, it creates the anti-Jewish Jeunesses, then the newspaper the working Revolt with in particular Henry Charbonneau, Coston takes part in the creation of the country working National front, also called “Francistes” - in opposition to the francists of Bucard -, started from fascistic inspiration and to which the doctrines are “close to the German national-socialisme”. The movement of Coston is dissolved in 1934. Thereafter, he was member of the French Popular party (PF) of Jacques Doriot, where he was in charge of the intelligence services of the party.

Coston was starting from 1934 the French correspondent of the Weltdienst . One year later, it is received with his first wife, Maria del Rosario, at the time of the Reichsparteitag of 1935.

Doctrinary anti-semite, Coston claims filiation of Edouard Drumont and even will start again the Free word , the newspaper created by the famous anti-semite during the years 1890, who was finally prohibited by a decree of Paul Marchandeau in April 1939. Paradoxically, during the Occupation, the German authorities will refuse in February 1941 the authorization to make to him reappear the Free word , request which it had made via Bernard Faÿ, indicated by the German ambassador Otto Abetz as one of these “high bourgeoisies reactionaries (...) who wanted to impose on France the dictatorship of the saber and the aspergillum”.

He leaves in Algérie in 1936, tries like Drumont to be made elect appointed in 1938. He returns to France where he creates several small houses of edition anti-semite S and antimaconnic, and also publishes some detective novels (bearing for the majority on freemasonry, like the business Dargence ). He breaks with his collaborator Henri-Robert Petit, whom he shows to have badly managed his data bases during his stay in Algeria and to have flown to him of the money, then the cranium Stuffing in 1944 with Albert Simonin.

In 1944, Coston flees in Germany, then with Prague; stopped in Austria in 1946, is continued in 1947 for intelligence with the enemy, then condemned the following year to the forced labors with perpetuity by judge Alexis Zousmann; his wife, Gilberte, were also imprisoned several months. It profits into 1951 from a medical grace then is pardoned definitively in 1955.

The journalist

In 1957, Coston founds the review French Lectures with Michel de Mauny and Pierre-Antoine Cousteau. It takes again its antimaconnic leading activities and anti-semites and it publishes its writings in Jeune nation , Défense of the Occident , Carrefour , Europe-Action then in Présent and National-Hebdo . Installed in the area of Dreux, it is via his/her daughter, Micheline Vallée, that it became acquainted with Alain de Benoist, which signed thereafter its first political articles in French Lectures under the pseudonym of Cédric de Gentissard.

Literary director of the the French Bookstore, bookstore founded in 1952 by Gilberte Coston, which was transformed little by little under its impulse starting from 1954 into diffusion and publisher. The bookstore was sold in 1976 with Jean-Gilles Malliarakis.

Without disavowing his former convictions, Henry Coston edulcorates his remarks anti-semites post-war period. He was in addition intimate negationnist (or “revisionist”) Paul Rassinier which he would have perceived, with Maurice Bardèche, like a “double political and historical guarantee”, was its editor and published several of his articles in French Lectures ”.

Its writings relate to in particular what it estimates to constitute the seizure of the freemason S and the high finance on the Politique and the French press S. At the exit of the Retour of the 200 families, the Duck connected wrote that “of-cujus is almost always remarkably informed, its files are almost always serious and it has the merit not to make speak about him. Due that the large press, of right-hand side and left, never agrees, so to speak, to mention the existence of its books”, while presenting it like “a fascistic tantinet on the edges, strongly petainist, a suspicion anti-semite”. In enemy Infiltrations in the national and popular line , published in 1999, Coston claims that an infiltration of freemasonry, in particular of the national Big room of France (GLNF), would be the cause of the scission of the National front.

Coston is the author of a bulky Dictionnaire of the French policy in several volumes which recalls the main actors (re-examined, movements, left, Idéologies, clubs, maconnic cabins) of the right and of the left French at the 20th century.

It published under several pseudonyms, of which “Georges Virebeau”, of the name of the property where it passed its childhood, “Saint-Pastour”, or the “Jerome archivist”. It is buried with the Parisian cemetery of Bagneux (Hauts-de-Seine).

Yann Moncomble and Emmanuel Ratier could be regarded as the “successors” of Coston by their activities of archivists of the policy and their writings conspirationnists.
