From Robinson, David. “Morocco: Muslims in a Muslim Nation.” In Muslim Societies in African History. West Nyack, NY, USA: Cambridge University Press, 2004. p 127.
"There is a large body of material in English on North Africa, including Morocco, from French, British, American, and Moroccan scholars. For two historical syntheses, see Jamil Abun-Nasr’s History of the Maghrib (Cambridge University Press, 1975) and Charles-Andr´ e Julien’s History of North Africa: From the Arab Conquest to 1830 (translated from French, Praeger, 1970). For a synthesis of what we know about Berber cultures before and after the Arab invasions, see Michael Brett and Elizabeth Fentress’ The Berbers (Blackwell, 1996). The Moroccan intellectual and historian, Abdallah Laroui, gives his synthesis in The History of the Maghrib: An Interpretative Essay (Princeton University Press, 1977). A British anthropologist, Ernest Gellner, has written extensively on Morocco; see his Saints of the Atlas (University of Chicago Press, 1969). An excellent essay on the politics of Morocco is Henry Munson’s Religion and Power in Morocco (Yale University Press, 1993).
For French colonial policy, especially toward Berbers, Arabs, and Islam, see the work of Edmund Burke III in Prelude to Protectorate in Morocco: Precolonial Protest and Resistance, 1860– 1912 (University of Chicago Press, 1976) and his article in (editors) Ernest Gellner and Charles Micaud’s Arabs and Berbers: From Tribe to Nation in North Africa (Heath and Company, 1972)."
