The Sands of Egypt by Sir Samuel Baker Describes Nubian Desert
Sir Samuel W. Baker writes of explorations along the Nile tributaries of Abyssinia. He sails from Cairo to Korosko in twenty six days, then crosses the Nubian desert in a grueling trek of ninety two hours of marching. Heat, barren lands, scarce water, and hostile mirages mark the journey. A tale of endurance, camels failing, and a crossing ordered by Said Pasha amid the Soudan quest.
