Abd el-Kader : Biography

Algerian nationalist hero, born in Mascara, Algiers. After the French conquest of Algiers, the Arab tribes of Oran elected him as their emir, and with great perseverance he waged a long struggle with the French (1832--47). Eventually crushed by overpowering force, he took refuge in Morocco, and began a crusade against the enemies of Islam, but was defeated at Isly in 1844.
