In Morocco is a travelogue written by the American author Edith Wharton. The book details Wharton's journey through Morocco in the early 20th century, during a time when the country was still largely unknown to Westerners. Wharton provides a vivid and detailed description of the country's landscapes, cities, and people, as well as its customs and traditions. She also reflects on the country's history and culture, comparing it to her own experiences in Europe and America. Throughout the book, Wharton portrays Morocco as a place of mystery and exoticism, but also as a country undergoing significant changes and modernization. In addition to her observations, Wharton includes numerous photographs and illustrations, making this book a valuable historical document as well as an engaging travel narrative.We passed through a gate and were confronted by other ramparts.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.
