A Bend in the Nile

Klappentext Nubia - an area located in Southern Egypt and Northern Sudan - goes back to 3100 BC. It was here Chris McIvor arrived to provide teaching services in the early 1980s. From Dongola he travelled along the Nile and across the desert, along the way exploring the remains of a civilization that long predates any European equivalent. Zusammenfassung 'You'll never come to any good'! the author is told by his headmaster as he is expelled yet again. Some years later he takes a teaching job in Sudan. Unfamiliar with their language and customs he struggles to control his first class of 55 bright girls. He discovers Africa! travels through the desert! and visits the war-locked region of Chad.
