This translation provides fascinating insights into a critical
period in Moroccan history and Moroccan-British relations during
the nineteenth century. Using the life and work of the British
representative in Tangier, John Drummond Hay, an individual who
personally experienced the relations between the two countries and
contributed directly to them for a period of almost half a century,
the author observes the nature of these relations and the
interwoven threads which governed and directed them.
John Drummond Hay was an immensely influential British diplomat who
guided British diplomacy in Morocco in the latter half of the
nineteenth century, when Britain was contemplating taking Morocco
over - an ambition it abandoned only in the Entente Cordiale in
1904. Drummond Hay was also very influential within Moroccan
political circles, and had a considerable effect on the initial
Moroccan reform programmes as the sultanate tried to come to terms
with the French occupation of neighbouring Algeria. Dr Ben Srhir is
recognized in Morocco and internationally as the leading authority
on the period and the topic.
