Review Quotes: "Ulloa's fine book reintroduces a figure whom we knew of, but knew little of, and makes important contributions both to the history of intellectuals and the identity of intellectuals in twentieth century France, and to the memory of the Algerian War."--Donald Reid, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
