John Harrison's book, published in 1633.

John Harrison was an English representative in Morocco in the 17th century.

James I of England sent John Harrison to Muley Zaydan in Morocco in 1610 and again in 1613 and 1615 in order to obtain the release of English captives.[1] He negotiated a treaty in May 1627 with Sidi al-Ayachi, independent governor of Salé, who had risen a month before against Mulay Zaydan.[2]

Harrison published an account of the Sultan Mulay Abd al-Malik in 1633.[3]
