Descripción

Very Good English Original cloth spine with new bdg. Spine slightly faded.Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English. 342 p., 54 b/w ills. Third Edition. First in Thornton. East again. The narrative of a journey in the Near Middle and Far East. Foreworded by Sir James M. Macleodd, K.B.E., C.M.G. Harris was a journalist, writer, traveller and socialite who achieved fame for his writings on Morocco, where he worked for many years as special correspondent for The Times. He settled in the country at the age of 19, eventually building himself a fine villa in Tangier where he lived for much of his life. His linguistic skills and physical appearance enabled him to pose successfully as a native Moroccan, traveling to parts of the country regarded as off-limits to foreigners. He wrote a number of well-regarded books and articles on his travels in Morocco and other countries in the Near and Far East. Harris also played a significant, though not always constructive, role in the European diplomatic intrigues that affected Morocco around the turn of the 20th century.
