I have always dreamed of visiting North Africa. This book has now made it a more intense desire. Part beautiful photography book, part travel guide, part accommodation guide.
The book is divided into the various regions of Morocco - along the Mediterranean coast (including Tangier, Rabat, Casablanca, El Jadida, Essaouira), onto the Middle Atlas (Fez, Meknes and Volubilis), High Atlas (Marrakech, Ouzoud), and on and on including the Sahara, Kasbahs, gorges and valleys of this amazingly diverse country.
The photographs are bright, colourful temptations showing daily life coupled with incredible places to stay. The text tells the traveller of highlights in each region.
Useful if you plan to visit this area, beautiful to gaze at whether you go or not.
