WORKS ON  MOROCCO REVIEWED*

BIBLIOGRAPHY        A   Bibliography  of Morocco , , . to   the  end
of Morocco.          ^f jggjr   by Lieut.-Col. Sir Lambert Playfair,

London, T2>g2.             "^                               ,      -^         t^ " ,              -^                            "

K.C.M.G., and Dr. Robert Brown, M.A., F.L.S.
(Supplementary papers of the Royal Geographical Society,
vol. iii., part 3, and published separately by Murray.f)

In defiance of alphabeticah order, this work must head
the list, as an invaluable contribution to Moroccan litera¬
ture, ^replete, minute, and accurate beyond the ordinary
run of bibliographies; enriched with summaries and
criticisms, mostly from the facile pen of Dr. Brown, an
indefatigable student of this country. Without it the
writer's works on Morocco would have been deprived of
much of-their most important material, which would have
been overlooked but for the Bibliography, On this work
the following brief reviews can in no way encroach, for the
proportion which remains untouched is appalling, but the
writer has selected from it everything that promised
valuable information, and the opinions here expressed deal
with all the volumes that he has been able to examine.

* Pseudonyms are distinguished from real names by inclosure in inverted
commas.

Brackets indicate anonymous works,  the authorship of which  has  been
ascertained from other sources.

The editions specified are those referred to in the reviewer's own works.

t I bequeath  the  copy of this  work  presented  to me  by Sir Lambert
Playfair,  with  my emendations and additions,  to  the E.oyal Geographical
Society, requesting that it may be kept with Dr. Brown's collection.—B.M.
