‘The Sahara embodies scale and mystery, the thin line between survival and destruction, the power to take life or to transform it . . .’

Of all Michael Palin’s epic voyages, this may be his greatest ever challenge: crossing the vast and unforgiving Sahara Desert. From the westernmost point of Senegal to Libya’s Mediterranean beaches, Sahara is a journey full of beauty, excitement, danger – and plenty of camel stew.

Reviews

Daily Telegraph
Palin makes a wonderful travelling companion ... his humour is set at exactly the right pitch
Guardian
The ultimate armchair travel book
Daily Mail
A glorious travel book. There's never a dull moment, either, in the stunning photography or the entertaining travel notes
Daily Telegraph
Brisk, fresh and makes you want to go where he has gone, if not necessarily to eat camel liver
Observer
Palin is the Python we all want to go abroad with
