The Life of Abdel Kader: Ex-Sultan of the Arabs of Algeria; Written from His Own Dictation, and Compiled from Other Authentic Sources
Excerpt from The Life of Abdel Kader: Ex-Sultan of the Arabs of Algeria; Written From His Own Dictation, and Compiled From Other Authentic Sources
If I should unfortunately be mistaken in the belief and expectation that some interest may yet be excited in the public mind by a narrative of the deeds and exploits of the illustrious Arab whose extraordinary career I have selected as my theme, I shall willingly impute my disappointment, not to any want of judgment and discrimination on the part of the reading public, but to my own involuntary and sincere enthusiasm for all that is grand, ennobling, and romantic.
That these characteristics attach largely, and in their most inspiring and soul-stirring sense, to the life I here depict, the following pages amply corroborate.

بحث محترم يسلط الضوء على حياة الأميرة عبد القادر الجزائري، يعاب عليه كثرة التكرار
