Red Nile: A Biography of The Worlds Greatest River

---

Robert Twigger's ambitious biography of the Nile is an unexpected triumph ......... a scintillatingly colorful account of a river and a region Twigger knows intimately ...... an elegiac moving book ........ hugely entertaining ..... probably the author's magnum opus.
- The Sunday Times (UK).

Twigger has found a narrative voice all too rare in contemporary travel writing: clear-eyed, uneffected, deadpan, slyly eitty, and unobtrusively crudite.
- Mail on Sunday (UK).
