Desert Journey - George Rodger (First Edition, published 1944)

1st. First edition hardback, 1944, with no jacket. In overall good used condition with some signs of age, spine sun faded and one small ink stain on map page otherwise in good condition - an excellent reading copy. Binding tight and appears little read. Internally clean, no annotation or inscriptions. illustrations and maps to endpapers bright and clear throughout. Not an old library book.

Illustrated with 64 B/W photographs. "When I left England at the height of the 1940 London Blitz, bound for the free French Cameroons, I began a diary for my own interest. The notes for this book were taken from that diary. My long journey, which took me across the Africa into the mountains of Abyssinia and the deserts of Libya, Iraq and Iran, was the outcome of a roving assignment given me by Life Magazine". - George Rodger.
