About This Book

A travel narrative offers a close, observational account of a Moroccan city and its environs, describing ruined urban splendor, measurements of location, street layouts and defensive architecture, domestic courtyard houses, markets, notable mosques and their administration, and the roles of saints and their sanctuaries. It documents charitable institutions, the presence of lepers and other marginalized groups, gardens and natural landmarks such as nearby mountains, and local customs. The text mixes practical details, personal encounters, social commentary on power and piety, and a short collection of regional vocabulary to convey both material conditions and cultural practices.
