Review:

"'Remarkable - Barnaby Rogerson has succeeded in isolating all the different strands of North African history and weaving them into a clear and comprehensible narrative. No one interested in the Maghreb can afford to be without this book.' - John Julius Norwich 'Ideal before-you-go reading' The Daily Telegraph"
