Publisher: SEPEG international 2001 | 222 Pages | ISBN: 2904521453 | PDF | 41 MB


Le désert ! Quel est le pilote qui après l'avoir survolé et s'y être posé, ne s'en trouve pas marqué à vie ? Le pilote de transport que j'ai été a eu cette chance très tôt dans sa carrière, à une période, après l'indépendance de l'Algérie, où la présence des ailes fran­çaises au Sahara se justifiait encore par l'existence des sites de lancement de nos pre­mières fusées spatiales et des sites à vocation d'expérimentation nucléaire. Bien sûr, ce n'était plus l'aventure des pionniers des années vingt et trente, qui est au cœur de cette exposition, mais le désert était toujours là à exercer sa fascination. S'y s'ajoutait celle suscitée par ces hommes, méharistes ou aviateurs, qui ont inscrit leur nom aux plus belles pages de ces temps des pionnieis.

Five-time Mr. Universe, seven-time Mr. Olympia, and Mr. World, Arnold Schwarzenegger is the name in bodybuilding.

Here is his classic bestselling autobiography, which explains how the "Austrian Oak" came to the sport of bodybuilding and aspired to be the star he has become.

Those guys were huge and brutal....The weight lifters shone with sweat; they were powerful looking, Herculean. And there it was before me -- my life, the answer I'd been seeking. It clicked. It was something I suddenly just seemed to reach out and find, as if I'd been crossing a suspended bridge and finally stepped off onto solid ground."

Terre du vent. Une enfance dans une ferme algérienne 1939 1945

L'Harmattan (23 sep 2009) | ISBN: 2296100236 | PDF | French | 172 Pages | 6 MB
“Ce livre n a rien à voir avec la guerre d Algérie.
Ce livre restitue la vie d'une ferme isolée du sud de l'Oranie, au cours de la période 1939-1945. C'est aussi le récit de l'éveil d'une petite sauvageonne privilégiée : l'enfant comprend à sa façon une histoire qui la dépasse et va pressentir les signes avant-coureurs de l'orage qui bouleversera le fragile équilibre de son monde, "terre du vent qui fait rouler les ronces sèches dans le lit des oueds et claquer les volets des maisons mortes, terre cruelle et douce, prêtée le temps d'un songe...". Entre autobiographie et fiction, un témoignage lucide et tendre sur un mode de vie méconnu.”
