A Dream For Peace by Dr. Ghoulem Berrah is a biography of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah. He was born in Ain Beida, a small town in the Algerian province of Constantine. He was the only son of his parents and was born while Algeria was still under French colonialism. He grew up witnessing oppression against his people, which fueled his desire to liberate them from colonialism. The French people colonized Algeria. He became an activist after witnessing the oppression of his people both at home and abroad. Even though his family was not wealthy, he did not let this deter him from attempting to liberate his people from the French. Get a copy to find out if he was successful in freeing his people.

I particularly appreciate the author's efforts to foster peaceful connections between his people and other African nations. From his lowly beginnings in Algeria, Dr. Ghoulem Berrah became a great student and a scientist. He later became an independent Algerian liberation fighter. The author's religion, Islam, did not prevent him from achieving his objective. He abandoned his medical studies to join the fight for independence. His upbringing and faith didn't stop him from trying to set his country free.

I learned a lot from this book, and I'm sure it had a good effect on me. The book was interesting to read and inspirational. The author's selflessness and tenacity greatly motivated me. He was detained and subjected to torture, but that did not deter him from moving forward. It just served to fuel his determination to succeed. Because of this book, I now know more about the history of Africa. One of the most important lessons I took away from the book is to never give up on what I stand for. Additionally, I should associate with people who will motivate me to work harder if I want to advance in life. And finally, using violence to settle a disagreement is never a good idea. Violence has a negative net impact. Always choose tranquility.

After reading it, there is nothing to criticize. The book was lovely, and the illustrations were extremely useful. I'd like to commend both the author and the editor on a job well done. Because there are no errors in the book, it is said to be exceptionally well-edited.

This outstanding book earns a rating of four out of four stars. It served as a source of inspiration for me. I, therefore, recommend this book to readers who enjoy reading about African history, who want to develop their leadership skills, and who are interested in politics.

Berrah shows sacrificial commitments in his lifetime and I am in awe of his self-motivation in a world where it is difficult to have allies while you want to live a life without unfairness and nepotism.

I admire the courage of Dr. Berrah and his comrades in their fight for independence. It was brave of them even when their educations were at risk. Great review!

I am glad to hear about the resilience of Dr. Berrah. He worked hard for the liberation of his people amid many difficulties. There are some things that are more important than continuing your education, especially if you return to it later.
