"Wartime North Africa is an essential and groundbreaking addition to scholarship of the Second World War. With great care and intelligence, Aomar Boum and Sarah Abrevaya Stein draw an intimate picture of the region.

Wartime North Africa captures a broad spectrum of the lived experience of civilians across the region.
