Critics hail The Blue Nile as a modern classic of historical reconstruction. In a sweeping, adventurous narrative, Alan Moorehead traces the mysterious history of the mighty African river, the Blue Nile, and explores the legendary events that have surrounded its waters: Napoleon's search for military glory, Mohammed Ali's ruthless quest for gold and slaves, and Scotsman James Bruce's fantastic journey to the river's source.
