Day's book was originally published in 1975. My copy cost me $3.95 new. At the time, it was one of the few books, perhaps the only book, that presented a glimpse into the Moroccan kitchen, and the possibility of tasting Morocco's delicious cuisine.
Day begins each chapter and intersperses the recipes with interesting stories of her experiences in Morocco. And her recipes aren't bad.
But there are now far better and more complete books on the subject, such as Paula Wolfert's "Couscous and other good food from Morocco" and several books by Kitty Morse.
