Sample Book Insights:#1 The Kingdom of Morocco has on its most widely used currency bill neither a camel nor a minaret, but the representation of the shell of a very large snail. The shell of this shore-living marine beast is reddish brown, slender, and spiny, with a long spire and an earlike opening.#2 The Berbers of the desert were not interested in harvesting the snails, but it was the sailors from far away who realized the potential of using these gastropods to make a fortune.#3 The first man to march down to the ocean was probably curious, or perhaps hungry, and he moved southward through Africa. He reached the cliffs, and saw far below him a boiling and seemingly endless expanse of water. He didn’t run yelping back to the safety of the savannah.#4 Man’s fascination with the sea led him to settle by the sea. He had come at last to Pinnacle Point.
