He visits the settings of modern legends, such as Tangier and Casablanca, as well as the two medieval centres Fès and Meknès, and sees earthen Kasbahs and Marrakech’s intoxicating bazaar.

Morocco has been influenced by an incredible variety of peoples: Phoenicians, Romans, Arabs, Berbers, Muslims, Jews, and most of Europe’s colonisers have played a part. Modern Moroccan society is no less rich and varied. In Berber villages in the mountains most people can’t read and consider their king divinely chosen, while businessman in Casablanca’s towering offices dream of European Union membership and a tunnel to Andalusia.
