Ottoman Explorations of the Nile: Evliya Celebi's `Matchless Pearl These Reports of the Nile' map and his accounts of the Nile and the Horn of Africa in The Book of Travels
Robert Dankoff
The most ambitious effort to explore and map out the Nile, before the time of Napoleon, was undertaken by the Ottomans - as recorded in two monumental documents. The book gives full weight to both documents, keeping their own integrity and highlighting the relation between them through ample cross-references.
320 pages, 14 color map reproductions
