Book Synopsis
As Algeria became connected to international news networks during French colonial rule in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this study examines how news spread through communities and across social divides, how new media changed the communication landscape, and how surveillance by the French government played a role.

Trade Review
Asseraf provides a wealth of new perspectives on information, engagement and resistance in colonial Algeria, and opens new lines of enquiry for scholars of news and media in North Africa and elsewhere. * Charlotte Ann Legg, Journal of North African Studies *
