Synopsis
This book details the author's journey through the Sinai desert, from the Suez canal to the Nile Delta. The author takes an almost forensic approach to the landscape, examining sand dunes and formations, and drawing conclusions about how natural forces shape them. They note how the dunes shift and form based on the wind direction, local water sources, and even the presence of insects and wildlife. The book also provides context on the region's history, geographical significance, and the importance of the Suez Canal. The author's detailed examination and interpretation of the natural phenomena at play make this book of interest to geologists, historians, and travelers alike.
