The Sahara: The Forgotten History of the World's Harshest Desert

Dec 19, 2006

At once a vast expanse of mesmerizing desolation and the crucible of human history, the Sahara Desert has been both the battlefield of empires and the haunted wilderness at the margins of the known world for thousands of years.
