For those familiar with present day Morocco, this volume, first
published in 1911, allows a fascinating comparison with the people
and places in that country over seventy years ago. The author,
founder of the British Settlement at Cape Juby, spent many years in
Morocco where he carefully studied the habits and customs of its
people, travelling widely throughout the region. His book, though
written with a missionary zeal common to the period, is nonetheless
a factual account which is greatly enhanced by the large number of
illustrations. Over fifty photographs, many of them providing
glimpses of cities and landscapes forever lost to modernization and
change, are included in the work. These, together with the author's
narrative complete a general description of Morocco at the turn of
the century that will be of great interest to students of North
African history, as well as the general reader.
