About This Item
(London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2002) 0297843036. 4to; original blue boards, lettered in gilt on spine; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; decorative endpapers; pp. 256; profusely illustrated with full-colour photographs by Basil Pao. Top edges of boards quite scuffed, else very good. "Michael Palin's epic voyages have seen him circumnavigate the globe, travel from the North to the South Pole and circle the countries of the Pacific Ocean, but perhaps the greatest single challenge he has faced is his latest, a crossing of the vast and merciless Sahara Desert. There is no easy way to do it, and Palin's experiences are unlike anything he has encountered before. ... This is Michael Palin, explorer-adventurer, at his hard-pressed best." .
