Step into a world rarely seen by outsiders as Alice Morrison recounts her extraordinary adventures traveling with nomadic tribes across the rugged and untamed landscapes of Morocco. In "Walking with Nomads", Morrison invites you to join her on three remarkable journeys - trekking along the winding Draa river, traversing the vast and unforgiving Sahara desert, and scaling the towering peaks of the Atlas mountains - all while accompanied by her nomadic guides and their resilient camels.

Morrison's vivid prose transports you to this hidden world, immersing you in the rich traditions, daily struggles, and nomadic way of life of these hardy people who have roamed Morocco's harsh terrains for centuries. Through her eyes, you'll experience the thrill of navigating shifting sand dunes, the serenity of oasis havens, and the majestic beauty of remote mountain valleys. With each arduous step, Morrison's admiration for the nomads' resourcefulness and symbiotic relationship with their environment grows, culminating in a profound respect for their enduring yet fragile existence.

Alice Morrison is an intrepid explorer and travel writer whose work has been featured in publications such as The Guardian, The Times, and Wanderlust. Her passion for delving into lesser-known cultures and pushing the boundaries of adventure shines through in this captivating and enlightening memoir.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
