OP In Innocents Abroad, Mark Twain has few complimentary words about the Moors. But then he writes:
" Many of the Negroes are held in slavery by the Moors. But the moment a female slave becomes her master's concubine her bonds are broken, and as soon as a male slave can read the first chapter of the Koran (which contains the creed) he can no longer be held in bondage.
Which is far more civilized than the antebellum South of the US.
