Before smartphones and streaming, families packed their bags and followed orders across oceans. In MOROCCO, James B. Farmer shares a Navy family’s leap into a new land, showing how resilience, gratitude, and childlike wonder can turn foreign ground into a second home
What happens when a child meets a world of new customs, new faith traditions, and new friends? In MOROCCO, James B. Farmer shows that the answer is simple—and beautiful: you listen, you learn, and you let curiosity lead. Conversations in courtyards, questions on trains, and shared meals become the building blocks of respect and understanding.
This is a memoir that treats difference not as a barrier but as an invitation. With grace and gentle wit, Farmer portrays neighbors of many backgrounds and beliefs, all seen at human scale. The result is a story that feels timely and timeless—a reminder that empathy is the most portable skill we have.
Readers who value intercultural dialogue and everyday wisdom will treasure this book.
In this generous narrative, readers will explore the following themes: • Everyday Diplomacy: How small acts—greetings, stories, shared food—change everything. • Faith & Culture: Big ideas explained with patience, clarity, and respect. • Seeing People First: Choosing understanding over assumptions.
