Culture Shock! Morocco (Rev. June 2001)
Orin Hargraves, author of Culture Shock! Morocco, covers the bases with a basic but thorough overview of Moroccan history, geography, and politics. He delves into the psychological and cultural mores of the Moroccan people, from their attitudes about men, women, and family to their views on homosexuality, hospitality, and religion.
Note: Morocco is not a dangerous country but this book covers the areas for potential misunderstanding between western visitors and Moroccans and Hargraves does his best to offer clear explanations of Moroccan thought and behavior.

From Publishers Weekly
Kitty Morse, author of many books on Moroccan cooking, including The Vegetarian Table. Morse divides the couscous recipes here into two categories: traditional and contemporary. The traditional recipes are all enticing; the contemporary ones, however, vary wildly from the tempting (Couscous-Parsley Salad with Preserved Lemon) to the unorthodox (Steak and Mushroom Pie with Double Gloucester Couscous).
