Product Information
The mile-deep gorge made by the Blue Nile as it flows out of the highlands of North West Ethiopia into the broad plains of the Sudan is one of the greatest natural features in the world. It remained virtually unexplored until 1968. That summer an expedition supported by the Army, The Daily Telegraph and the Royal Geographical Society set out to investigate this gorge. While covering the technical and scientific dimensions of the expedition, the author also provides a deeply human account of this exciting adventure. First published in 1970, this book has become a classic of African exploration.Product Identifiers
