    Lyautey and the French Conquest of Morocco describes and analyzes the method of colonial conquest and rule linked to the name of Marshal Louis-Hubert Lyautey (1854-1934), Frances first resident general in Morocco and the most famous of Frances twentieth-century overseas soldier-administrators. Lyautey popularized the notions of peaceful penetration and indirect rule as part of a grand colonial design of military pacification, economic development, political modernization, and social betterment. Lyautey believed that imperialism could be a life-giving force for both Frenchmen and Moroccans alike; during his thirteen years as resident general he boldly promoted Frances actions in Morocco as the highest form of imperialism. This book traces the development of Lyauteys ideas on conquest and rule at home and abroad and shows how they translated into practice. While there was much that was praiseworthy in Lyauteys approach to colonial matters, in the end he always relied on force, and it failed to stem Moroccan resistance to French rule. Based on archival material in Morocco and France, Lyautey and the French Conquest of Morocco is the first book to deal in a detailed manner with French pacification strategy in Morocco and with the mechanics of indirect rule (always, in reality, rather more direct than indirect). It should be of great value to readers of nineteenth- and twentieth-century French, European, and North African history and to students of colonialism and imperialism.
