Sahara

Winner of the 2017 Edward Stanford Travel Writing Award`s Outstanding Contribution to Travel WritingOf all Michael Palin’™s epic voyages around the world, his Sahara trip was perhaps the most challenging. Shrugging aside the perils of camel stew and being run over by the Paris-Dakar rally, Palin discovers that, far from being an empty wasteland, the vast and merciless Saharan desert is, in fact, home to a wonderful diversity of cultures and some of the most spectacular landscapes on earth.
