In Morocco is a travelogue written by Edith Wharton, an American novelist, in 1920. The book describes her experiences during her trip to Morocco, where she traveled extensively and observed the culture, customs, and social norms of the country. Wharton provides a detailed account of her journey, from the moment she arrived in Tangier, to her travels through the Atlas Mountains, and her visit to the imperial city of Fez.Throughout the book, Wharton offers insights into the lives of the Moroccan people, their traditions, and their way of life. She describes the architecture and design of the buildings, the colorful markets, and the bustling streets. She also shares her encounters with the locals, who welcomed her with open arms and shared their stories and traditions with her.In addition to her observations of the country, Wharton also reflects on her own experiences as a foreign traveler in a new and unfamiliar land. She writes about the challenges she faced, the cultural differences she encountered, and the lessons she learned during her travels.Overall, In Morocco is a fascinating and informative account of a journey to a land that was relatively unknown to the Western world at the time. Wharton's vivid descriptions and personal reflections make this book a must-read for anyone interested in travel, culture, and history.We passed through a gate and were confronted by other ramparts. Then we entered an outskirt of dusty red lanes bordered by clay hovels with draped figures slinking by like ghosts. After that more walls, more gates, more endlessly winding lanes, more gates again, more turns, a dusty open space with donkeys and camels and negroes; a final wall with a great door under a lofty arch--and suddenly we were in the palace of the Bahia, among flowers and shadows and falling water.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
