About the book: 1961 / "History of North Africa" ​​Sh.-A. Julienne became widely known in France and abroad. Since 1931, when its first edition was published, the book has enjoyed continued success and recognition from the French progressive intelligentsia and everyone who is interested in the past of North Africa and seeks to understand the destinies and aspirations of the North African peoples. In 1951–1956 it was published in a second edition. Its great popularity was greatly facilitated by both the fascinating presentation, the original and bold language, the flavor of which, unfortunately, is inevitably lost in translation, and the author’s ability to objectively evaluate people and events, his sympathy for the national liberation movement in the countries of North Africa. Author of the book , Charles-André Julien is a major historian and public figure, professor at the Sorbonne. In modern bourgeois historiography, this work by Sh.-A. Julienne is perhaps one of a kind. Its special value lies in the fact that it provides a systematic and coherent account of the history of North Africa..
