Description

In between the search for the Poles, the climbing of Everest and the Space Race, the exploration of the Sahara – a huge swathe of terrain, the size of India – by motor car is one of the untold chapters in the story of twentieth-century exploration. Many people have become fascinated by this area since falling in love with the scenery of ‘The English Patient’.

In this fascinating and very readable volume, Andrew Goudie, a world authority on desert environments, charts the travels of the early desert explorers who drove across uncharted territory by motor car.
