R. B. Cunninghame Graham's trek into the Moroccan interior beyond
Marrakesh is a classic example of British adventure travel. His
ostensible purpose was to reach the forbidden city of Tarudant,
where it was claimed no Christian had ever set foot, and which he
attempted while variously disguised as a Turkish doctor and a
sheikh from Fez. In the end, Cunninghame Graham's mission was a
failure: halfway to his goal, he was captured and held prisoner for
four months in the medieval castle of Kintafi in the Atlas
Mountains. But his loss was the reader's gain, as Edward Garnet
points out in his introduction, for "the episode of this enforced
detention in (a) strange semi-Arcadian, semi-feudalistic scene,
while the traveller watches day after day the panorama of Berber
life...is unique in the literature of travel". Part history, part
social commentary as only the British wrote it, Cunninghame
Graham's account of his travels makes fascinating reading nearly a
century later.
