| Summary | "The Nile in 1904" by Sir William Willcocks is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on hydrology and irrigation, specifically addressing the complexities of the Nile River and its tributaries, which are of significant importance to the regions of Egypt and Sudan. It seeks to compile and update existing knowledge based on recent observations, studies, and previous reports about the river's behavior, discharge, and geography. The opening of the book introduces the complicated nature of the Nile and highlights its historical significance as a subject of hydrological study. Willcocks references preceding works and notable figures in the field, setting the stage for a detailed examination of the river’s hydraulics. He outlines the organization of the book, which includes descriptions of the river and its tributaries, the climate affecting them, and specific projects that leverage the Nile's waters for irrigation. The author aims to continue the work of early pioneers in the field of Nile studies, addressing not only the scientific details but also broader implications for water management and irrigation in the region.
