{"product_id":"inside-the-battle-of-algiers-9781682570753","title":"Inside the Battle of Algiers","description":"This gripping insider's account chronicles how and why a young woman in 1950s Algiers joined the armed wing of Algeria's national liberation movement to combat her country's French occupiers. When the movement's leaders turned to Drif and her female colleagues to conduct attacks in retaliation for French aggression against the local population, they leapt at the chance. Their actions were later portrayed in Gillo Pontecorvo's famed film \u003cem\u003eThe Battle of Algiers.\u003c\/em\u003e When first published in French in 2013, this intimate memoir was met with great acclaim and no small amount of controversy. It is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand not only the anti-colonial struggles of the 20th century and their relevance today, but also the specific challenges that women often confronted (and overcame) in those movements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Just World Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781682570753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Zohra Drif","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36665699467420,"sku":"9781682570753","price":25.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_086db18c-71a3-4f6d-9371-261f164a9f43.jpg?v=1603910156","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/inside-the-battle-of-algiers-9781682570753","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
