"Inside the Battle of Algiers": Where to Buy, and US Book Tour Info

"Inside the Battle of Algiers: Memoir of a Woman Freedom Fighter" by Zohra Drif with Lakhdar Brahimi (foreword), Andrew Farrand (translation)

(Video by Allaqta. Subtitles enabled by default.)

Inside the Battle of Algiers is officially here! After two long years of translation, I'm excited to share this book—and an important chapter of Algeria's history, from one of its most prominent heros—with the English-speaking world.
