From the Rif War to the rebellion of 1958, the Berbers (Imazighen)
have played a central role in the history of Moroccan resistance to
colonialism in the twentieth century. This book provides an
in-depth overview of Berber resistance to the French campaigns of
'Pacification', and the subsequent struggle over Berber identity in
the independence era. Deeply steeped in Berber history and culture,
the author traces the major and minor engagements between French
forces and the Berbers in revealing detail, using previously
unavailable sources. Relying on a wealth of oral sources and
extensive field work, it provides the most complete history to date
of one of the most important Berber communities in North Africa.
