French Invasion - Algerian Resistance (1830-1871)

By S.E. Al-Djazairi

This book charts the French colonial war in Algeria between 1830 and 1871. This period was marked by fierce military encounters between the French army and Algerian resistance in diverse parts of the country. Each of the chapters from two to six focuses on a different phase of such a conflict. Chapters one and seven look at the general issues of colonisation, mainly its foundations and impact.This book relies in very large measure on the accounts of the participants in the war, including officers and soldiers, which have been mostly translated from French. These participants are given ample room to tell us their experiences. This is one of the unique contributions of this work other than informing us about this phase of history that is generally little known.
