Morocco by S. L. Bensusan
"Morocco" by S. L. Bensusan is a travel narrative written in the early 20th century.

Through his observations, Bensusan offers readers a vivid portrayal of the uniqueness of Moroccan life, emphasizing the contrast between the undiscovered beauty of the land and the modern conveniences often sought by tourists.
