MACNAB, FRANCES - A Ride in Morocco. Among believers and traders

London, Darf Publishers, 1985. Different, met stofomslag. x+(2)+367 pp. Black & White images. Conditie: Good, With illustrations and folding map. Frances Macnabs A Ride in Marocco contains the intriguing narrative of her journey on horseback through that country, at the turn of the century. No pioneering expedition this rather, a leisurely ride between the major centres of population, dropping in on other Europeans along the way. Picture, then, a haughty British woman progressing on horseback from Tangier down to Marrakesh, enjoying a somewhat testy relationship with the native population and generally getting her own way. This is Ms Macnab at her best opinionated and brooking no nonsense, she ride imperiously among the inhabitants noting with a keen eye every detail of their lives and manners. She is, however, not blind to the beauties of the landscape, nor to the more endearing qualities of the people she meets. Her narrative retains a lasting charm and this facsimile of the first edition, published in 1902, will be welcomed by a wide readership.
