GEOFFREY MOORHOUSE - The Nile

Title: The Nile
Description: Odyssey Publications, 1998. Hardcover. Pp: 194. The splendors of the Egyptian Nile - from Aswan and Luxor to Cairo and Alexandria - are among the most photographed, and thus familiar, sights in the world. Yet in this extraordinary book, a Nomachi classic, that imagery is entirely transcended. The photographer followed the Nile on to its upper reaches, along its two great tributaries, the Blue Nile and the White Nile, into Sudan and Ethiopia and beyond, to one of its sources in the Ruwenzori Mountains. Some famous travelers have traced this route, including Herodotus in the fifth century BCE, Burton and Speke and Livingstone and Stanley in the 19th century, and Alan Moorehead in our own time. Kazuyoshi Nomachi has followed them, but has recorded here his own personal odyssey and his unique vision of these mysterious places. ISBN: 9789622175433. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
