In the summer of 1955,five undergraduates,officially sponsored by the Oxford University Exploration Club,set off in a truck they named Tartarin to visit the Berber Tribes in the Atlas Mountains of Southern Morocco. Their aim sto study the people and fauna and flora of this remote part of North Africa. This is a lighthearted account of the expedition by its leader,who has the rare ability to tell a good story with grace and humour.
