1898, Mission Foureau-Lamy. L'Afrique traversée à pied de Ouargla à Matadi, les possessions africaines françaises réunies, les troupes de Rabah battues et celui-ci tué une épopée française racontée par un tout jeune caporal des tirailleurs algériens qui, pendant deux ans, nota soigneusement tout, chaque soir, dans son carnet. Expédition de conquête coloniale injustifiable pour certains. Mais alors, pas d'ONU ni de Conseil de sécurité pour autoriser une intervention, seule une conférence de Berlin de 1884... Pas d'Indiens, pas de bandits, mais des Touaregs et un sultan esclavagiste dans cette conquête du Sud qui, par bien des aspects, nous rappelle celle de l'Ouest américain.
Osez mettre un moment vos certitudes de côté et ne boudez pas votre plaisir à accompagner Charles dans une belle aventure humaine faite de dépassement de soi, de camaraderie et d'amour pour la patrie.
Si la Patrie réclamait mon sang, aurais-je le droit d'hésiter ? Non pas ! Avant d'être à moi-même, j'appartiens à mon pays: je lui dois tout, jusqu'à mon dernier souffle, jusqu'à la dernière pulsation de mon coeur.
Charles Guilleux, Journal de route
