Description

Marrakech Express is a journey through Morocco, a country struggling to maintain its unique blend of tradition and tolerance in the turbulent winds of the Arab Spring. Award-winning journalist and author Peter Millar embarks on a literally reverse-engineered train journey, tracing the country's history and culture from its ancient capital.

Millar's story begins with the iconic song 'Marrakech Express', recorded by Crosby, Stills and Nash in 1969. A generation later, Millar sets out to explore the country that inspired the song, and in doing so, uncovers a complex and diverse nation.

This book is a fascinating exploration of Morocco's history, culture and people, and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the country and its place in the world today.
