5.0 out of 5 stars All of the Nile, December 6, 2001
This review is from: The Nile (Hardcover)
This is a great book, with photographs from Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt. The Nile in Egypt is what we are used to see photographed, so it is interesting to see other sides of this great river. The photos are simply stunning!
