Down the Nile by Rosemary Mahoney
Monday, March 1st, 2010 Check the catalog for this item. Rosemary Mahoney provides travel writing at it’s finest by injecting her humor and perseverance on her trip down the nile. The author faces crocodiles, dangerous river currents and most of all the stongly held beliefs from the local men about the merits of a foreign woman.
This book highlights the cultural differences yet still enlightens the reader about the richness of Egyptian culture and history. I think if you liked “Desert Queen” you would enjoy this book.
