DEATH IN THE SAHARA. The Lords of the Desert and the Timbuktu Railway Expedition Massacre. Foreword by Dean King.

(New York), Skyhorse Publishing, (2008). Cloth spine & boards, fine in d/w, pp. xviii, 286. ISBN 1 60239 630 2.
¶ The most disastrous exploration mission in the Sahara's history, an 1880 French surveying expedition through the Sahara to bring home the wealth of Timbuktu by rail. "Under-armed in hostile territory and foolishly employing the enemy as guides, the one-hundred-man expedition was ambushed and stranded without camels or supplies in the deserts of southern Algeria. Many men were killed outright, and for four months the survivors were menaced by the vicious Tuareg, the 'lords of the desert,' who robbed and starved them and tricked them into eating poisoned fruit" (d/w blurb).
