Explore Tangier's occupation through vivid characters and unravel the complexities of colonial aspirations, deceit, corruption, and international influences in this historical narrative. In 1661 Portugal ceded Tangier to Charles II as part of Catherine of Braganza’s dowry settlement. Thus started the adventure known as ‘English Tangier’ whereby the Stuart monarch spent a king’s ransom defending a city perched precariously on the North African coast surrounded by hostile powers.
