A lively history of the French conquest of Morocco, 1903 to 1914, including an excellent portrait of Hubert Lyautey, who led the French military campaign. Among the many pleasures of this scholarly, entertainingly written and often humorous history is its portrait of turn-of-the-century Morocco and the sultanates that ruled over the region. With 15 photographs and a map.  (MRC25, $28.00)
