Wow, what a fascinating country. Interesting book, gorgeous photos. Seemed fairly balanced, though I can't say I yet have enough background on Mauritania or Northwest Africa to really evaluate. But as an engaging presentation of a fascinating region, I loved this.
Interesting and informative book about the rather obscure North African country of Mauritania, its history, topographical features, religion and customs.
