We have come across stories of many brave individuals, who fought for their country's independence. They were beaten, jailed and murdered for opposing colonial rules. One such story is of Ghoulem Berrah , who fought with determination and courage to free his country, Algeria. In his own biography, "A Dream For Peace" , Dr Ghoulem Berrah narrates his own struggles to free Algeria from French colonial rule.

In this biography, we are introduced to his childhood days, acquiring education in a country plagued by social unrest and political turmoil. The descriptions of his challenges and hardships he faced, show how his characters and beliefs were shaped. Along with being diplomat, he was medical doctor, who introduced hypothesis called "Reverse Transcriptase Enzyme".

The author skillfully crafts the opening of chapters , seamlessly blending historical context with anecdotes making it easy for readers to connect with author on his freedom journey.

I liked how his life transformed from idealistic young individual to a seasoned advocate for freedom and human rights.Throughout the book, we came across his perseverance, determination and unwavering commitment to the pursuit of justice. His multifaceted approach to life exemplified his commitment to bettering society on multiple fronts, whether through political activism or groundbreaking research.

He even mentioned his friendship formed with fellow revolutionaries and mentorship under affluent political leaders showing their contributions working together towards freedom goal. However, I was confused with names of various leaders mentioned in book. The only thing which bothered me ,was length of the book which didn't hinder my positive attitude towards biography. I rate this book five out of five stars for its professional editing and engaging content. I didn't find any grammatical mistakes.

In conclusion, "A Dream For Peace" captures the unyielding spirit of Dr. Ghoulem Berrah who fought relentlessly for Algeria's freedom. I recommend this book who are obsessed with freedom stories and looking to get inspired by one's remarkable journey.
