French naturalist Théodore Monod spent more than seventy years crossing the Sahara on foot and by camel. In this work, Monod evokes the landscapes of Mauritania, his crossings through the dunes, and the region’s fauna, flora, history and prehistory; he also recounts the search for a huge meteorite he had learned about in the 1930s.
Méharées was originally published in 1937 and this edition forms part of the Terres d’aventure collection.
Readers interested in accounts of exploration, nature and the history of the Sahara desert.
