Review Quotes:
"Michael Laskier tells his story very well. He has done an excellent job of archival work and has related his study of the AIU to the broader issues of government during the Protectorate and Independence periods. There really are no competing works in English, and even the French sources are not quite on point with this work." -- Lawrence Rosen, Department of Anthropology, Princeton University.
