Trade Review
"Schroeter's meticulously documented study is a model for research on intermediate minorities." -- CHOICE
"Until this book was written, all that was left in the collective memory about Meir Maclin was a toponym in the mellah of Marrakesh, the Darb Maknin. Through the inspired research of Daniel Schroeter, and the historical self-awareness of the Lévy-Corcos family who preserved the papers of their ancestor, this extraordinary story has finally become known" -- North African Studies
"A model of historical interpretation, [this book] is also a delight to read: compelling, concise, and utterly devoid of jargon." -- African Studies Review
