The Nile From the Mountains to the Mediterranean
Aldo Pavan
| The Nile winds some 6,695 kilometres from the heart of Africa to the Mediterranean. Here, Aldo Pavan and his superb photographs trace the river’s route from Uganda, across Ethiopia, Sudan and finally Egypt, capturing its beauty and many different phases and moods.
This superb portrayal of the vast range of landscapes, history, wildlife and humanity found on the banks of the Nile, from the forests of Uganda and the plains of Sudan to the breathtaking antiquities of Egypt and the seething metropolises of Khartoum, Cairo and Alexandria, will entrance anyone fascinated by the world’s longest river.
Aldo Pavan is a travel writer and photographer. Among his previous books is The Ganges, also published by Thames & Hudson.
