520 _a"Travels through the Empire of Morocco" by John Buffa is a travel narrative written in the early 19th century. This account details the author's experiences and observations as he journeys through Morocco, providing insights into the culture, politics, and history of the region. As a physician to the forces, Buffa recounts his interactions with various figures, including the Emperor of Morocco, while reflecting on the complexities of life in a country he finds both intriguing and challenging. At the start of the text, Buffa explains the circumstances that led him to Morocco, beginning with his appointment to the Garrison Surgeon in Gibraltar and his subsequent journey to attend a sick governor in Larache. He describes his arrival in Tangiers and gives an overview of its history and condition, delving into the hospitality of the local inhabitants and the political dynamics of the region, including the challenges posed by the Army Medical Board's machinations against him. Throughout the opening chapters, Buffa introduces various places and people he encounters, detailing his medical practice and the unique customs he observes, all while establishing a foundation for his broader narrative regarding the intricate relationship between Britain and Morocco.
