A Wealth of Historical writing dealing with the Maghrib (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya) has been published during the roughly forty years since European colonial control ended in the region.

Cutting across chronological categories, the book encompasses historiographical writing dealing with all eras, from the ancient Maghrib to the contemporary period.

Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Historians from Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, and the US overview the historiography in the region since the countries gained independence about 40 years ago. They consider writings on all periods from ancient through medieval and early modern to the present. Among their topics are recent trends in the study of modern North African history, Algerian scholarly and political views of Algerian nationalism, and the Maghrib and the Mediterranean world in the 19th century. No index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
