Marocco

From the imperial cities of Fès, Meknès, Rabat and Marrakech to the oases of southern Morocco: a complete guide that tackles routes that wind throughout the country. Particular attention is dedicated to the South: a region with millennia of history, little known, but never cut off from the events that have marked the evolution of this country. The traces of the past are sometimes tenuous, sometimes monumental or, at other times, precious and fragile. They all have in common the fact that they are not easily found, the asphalt flows close by and ignores them, no indications help you. Making visible the traces of that past sedimented in the landscape is the ambitious objective of this guide. For many years the author came to Morocco without a map or guide, having the privilege of having a lot of time and therefore without fixing a travel programme, perhaps neglecting to see, at times, important historical monuments, but allowing herself the luxury of chasing imaginary mirages behind a dune and being accompanied by the hand of a child in the labyrinth of a medina. A guide full of itineraries, maps, unpublished routes on particular tracks indicated by precise GPS points, many images and drawings. A rich historiography and many boxes with stories of personal, curious and useful experiences complete the text.
