I Was a French Muslim: Memories of an Algerian Freedom Fighter

Mokhtefi''s powerful memoir bears witness to the extraordinary men and women who fought for Algerian independence against a colonial regime that viewed non-Europeans as fundamentally inferior, designating them not as French citizens, but as ''French Muslims.'' He presents a nuanced, intelligent, and deeply personal perspective on Algeria''s transition to independent statehood, with all its inherent opportunities and pitfalls.
