Revue de presse :
A classic work of Sahara exploration, first published in 1935, this is the history behind The English Patient. Bagnold was one of a group of eccentric British and Empire explorers whose passionate, amateur enthusiasm led to groundbreaking exploration of the Egyptian western desert and the Libyan Sahara on the eve of the Second World War. --Country Life, 15 December 2010
In 1935, army officer Ralph Bagnold wrote his account of the explorations that he and his colleagues made into the Libyan Desert. Because of its extent and aridity, this desert, the size of India, had been little explored until this was made possible by the motor car ... It s entirely appropriate that a new generation of readers will benefit from this new edition of one of the classics of exploration. --Geographical Magazine, January 2011
...This classic account of their exploits, re-issued by Eland, is captivating. Beginning with naïve skids, they are soon venturing to the Pyramids and risking life and limb to glimpse little-known Petra. They graduate to daredevil expeditions, trundling thousands of miles into the dead world of East Africa, and changing desert exploration forever. --Wanderlust, January 2011
