This narrated travelogue starts in the harbor city of Algiers, Algeria, the former headquarters of pirates, and showcases the Kasbah, the palace fortress of the pirates. The cities of Casablanca (largest city and port), Rabat (capital) and Marrakech in Morocco are visited next. In each city, the fundamentally Arab population with its marketplaces and simpler ways is contrasted with the European influence seen in architecture, automobile traffic, and hotel life.
