Free delivery. Nothing extra to pay at checkout.
In 1830, with France's colonial empire in ruins, Charles X ordered his army to invade Ottoman Algiers. Victory did not salvage his regime from revolution, but it began the French conquest of Algeria, which was continued and consolidated by the succeeding July Monarchy. In By Sword and Plow , Jennifer E. Sessions explains why France chose first to conquer Algeria and then to transform it into its only large-scale settler colony.
