Abstract

In the construction of the collective remembrance of any war, literary, journalistic, and soldier' chronicles have become very significant and this evidence has been clearly exposed in recent researches on cultural warfare studies. From this statement, the purpose of this chapter is to examine an individual testimony to increase our understanding of the complex Spanish-Moroccan War (1859-1860). Rather than delving into its military dynamics, the main goal of this contribution will consist of providing a profound comprehension of this struggle, its extensive international implications and legacy thanks to a detailed analysis of The Spanish Campaign in Morocco. This is an interesting compilation of the previous reports written by Frederick Hardman, an unknown (at least among Spaniards) foreign correspondent whose words can be extremely enlightening insofar as it will be applied the analytic tool of ̶ British ̶ informal imperialism as basis for the study of the multidimensional Spanish-Moroccan relationships.
