Description

Morocco: A Sense of Place is an ideal photo album of a trip to Morocco - the kind of album that everyone wishes they had the time or skill to put together, without sifting through crumpled leaflets or fuzzy photos of monuments hidden behind the heads of strangers. Organized in themes, each chapter reflects one of the traveller's abiding impressions: the vibrant colours of the souks and textiles; the hubbub of its city streets; the spectacular landscape and more ... An innovative mix of travelogue and armchair travel, the book is peppered throughout with evocative mementos such as posters, ticket stubs, newspaper cuttings, labels and postcards.
