Desert Winds Publishing | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

A solo, off-tracks Sahara expedition where the author faced ... unusual problems: his maps and satellite images were confiscated in mid-Sahara. But he went on to complete a complex, demanding and, at times, hazardous 700-mile off-piste route to visit and photograph the extraordinary landscapes he was determined to see. A carefully calculated risk, not reckless buccaneering, executed with considerable care. With one or two nasty surprises.
Told tongue-in-cheek – with humour, a passion for the desert, a boundless sense of wonder, a love of nature, technical detail – and accompanied by achingly beautiful pictures of Algeria's pristine Sahara. The story finishes with some sharp opinion and proposals for a Protected Area in the Sahara – with signs of a light at the end of the tunnel.
