"Onder de Mooren: Avontuurlijke reizen door alle werelddeelen" by Balen is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book explores the journeys and adventures encountered by the central characters as they traverse various global regions, particularly focusing on their experiences in Morocco. The story introduces two young men, Lieutenant Frank de Leeuw and his companion Dries, who embark on a quest to explore the unexplored and often perilous terrains of North Africa. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for a thrilling maritime journey from Gibraltar to Tangier, where the characters encounter a dramatic event when a passenger falls overboard. Their immediate response highlights their character and preparedness for adventure. As they arrive in Tangier, the contrast between the familiar European world and the unfamiliar, chaotic environment of Morocco unfolds. Frank's aspiration to visit the ancient city of Fez is presented as a quest for knowledge and understanding of a culture that starkly contrasts with their own. The characters engage in lively discussions, expressing both excitement and trepidation about the journey ahead, which promises to be filled with encounters with the local populace, cultural challenges, and the realities of travel in a land rumored to be fraught with danger.
