This memoir
was written by the former Algerian defence minister, General
Khaled Nezzar, who held high positions in the High State Committee
of Algeria during the 1990s. Born in 1937, he reviews his
life from his childhood, his desertion from the French Army
to the ALN and his military career in the Algerian armed forces.
He analyses the events of 19 June 1988, the silent agreement
between Chadli, Hamrouche, Mehri with the FIS, the state of
emergency of 1991 and the end of the electoral process and
the tragic events in Algeria during the 1990s in the struggle
against the terrorism of the FIS. In his conclusions Nezzar
offers both a brief assessment and perspectives. The book
includes in an annex documents on the use of force during
the state of emergency and several documents on the goals
of the FIS.
