Synopsis

This book is an extensive compendium of 20th-century knowledge on the history, peoples, customs, and culture of Morocco. While the author focuses on the lifestyles of Moroccans, both past and present, they also provide a great deal of context on the broader Maghrebi region. The author aims to dispel the Western misconception of a static, unchanging "Orient" by highlighting the nation's complexities and the multifaceted nature of a society in flux between the pull of tradition and the forces of modernity. The book is rich with historical detail and the author capably weaves these threads into a tapestry that connects the ancient histories of the Berbers and Arabs with the ongoing political process of nation-building in the modern state of Morocco.
