Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's autobiography, Dream for Peace: An Ambassador Memoir, delves into the author's life experiences. His concern and love for his wife are admirable, as is his compassion for everyone he met. He was always attempting to assist others, demonstrating a great deal of compassion. Reading this book has taught me a lot. Overall, I give it 4 out of 4 stars. The book is commendable to those who seek real-time encouragement and motivation from someone who has a lot of ups and downs in life.

I have reviewed this book, and I gave it a rating of 4 out of 4 stars. I found it to be enlightening, very informative, and entertaining. I enjoyed the history lessons I received from Dr. Berrah, as he told his story in such a way that I didn't feel bored or overwhelmed by the volume of information. The book is quite voluminous but completely worth the read, and I would definitely recommend it to people. There is nothing I dislike about this well-written book.

This book was an incredible read, no doubt. One never stops to commend Dr. Ghoulem Berrah's resilience at ensuring peace reigns all over Africa. Even despite losing his mom and sent to prison, this doesn't also stop him from fighting for the freedom of his fatherland. It was definitely inspirational.

This is a lengthy book but the reader does not get bored or uninterested as the sequence of the autobiographical elements on the backdrop of social and political canvas of that time flows smoothly maintaining the interest of the reader. I rate this book as four stars out of four and reiterate that it is a great inspiring work for all of us struggling in our lives to attain success and happiness.

The part describing the love for Dr. Berrah with his third wife, Titi, was very moving. Finally, he found the love of his life. They enjoyed their marriage for 40 years till the end of his life. It is difficult to comment on this marriage between different faiths that are not allowed in the Bible (2 Corinthians 6:14). However, for the sake of humanity, God has used them to inspire living in peace despite the differences. This part is described more in the chapter about Our Common Faith, which is the highlight of this book. That is the reason I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars.

The book was never-ending. It kept going on and on. At times, I couldn't connect the dots as there was way too much information about so many things. Overall, it is a one-time read. I was surprised at how the author was able to meticulously craft a wide range of topics.

I'm currently reviewing this book. done with the reading. I'm going to rate it 4 stars. I really love the religious tolerance preached and exemplified in the book.

I wouldn't take offense on the self-eulogy that the author showed because that is normal human nature and circle. At old age will tend to recollect memories of our past achievement or failures. Furtunately for Berrah, his is of success, and it can help others for motivation. So I wouldn't dislike anything in the book.

I like one quote that says something like secularity is a form of religious tolerance.

I really enjoyed reading Dr. Ghoulem's story. The way it was put across to the reader made it quite appealing. It's not written in the style of many autobiographies which sometimes can be tiresome. His passion for peace and dialogue come across as potent.

I enjoyed the book, the author had an eventful and interesting life. Many lived in the same period marked with political turmoil, however did not go so far and did not contribute as much as the author. I loved thae layout of the book for these reasons I rate it 4 out of 4 stars.

The book talks about the author quite fluidly and well, and it portrays Berrah in great detail. I could be able to understand who Berrah was in depth. Therefore, it gets a four.

My opinion about this book is that the author knows well how to deliver his though through writing. His writing flows well and his emotion is projected in the book appropraitely. This made me relate well with his book. Additionally, I'm a usual fan of memoir, and the idea of the book and the content are great. I enjoyed reading the book and I rated it 4 out 4 stars
