Good book to read on the first trip to Morocco. Good stuff so far, if slightly repetitive in the introduction. Kicks in properly pretty quickly, though, and a great way in to understanding some of the historical roots of our ongoing misconceptions over Islam.

Picked up again after a random pause. Good stuff - a different perspective on Elizabethan England that makes so much sense I don't know why English history for the period isn't told from a foreign policy perspective all the time. Makes so much more sense.
