Lords of the Atlas

Description

 

 

One of the bibles of British twentieth-century Orientalism - by the author of A Ring of Bright Water.  Gavin Maxwell describes the extraordinary medieval nature of Morocco in the twentieth century.  He focusses on a family who combined the lethal elegance of gangland mobsters with the opulent charm of hereditary Indian princes, fed by a monopoly in drugs and prostitution.
