The conflicts that have shaped this place are presented to readers through insightful text, but readers are also given a glimpse into the lives of the everyday people of Mauritania. Their festivals, artistic pursuits, games, and beliefs are unique, and learning about them broadens readers' horizons and deepens their appreciation for diversity.
