Summary "Sahara" by Angus Buchanan is a travelogue written in the early 20th century. The work chronicles an extensive journey across the Sahara Desert, highlighting the perils and marvels encountered by the author and his companions, including the struggle for survival and the captivating landscapes. Buchanan's dual background as a naturalist and explorer adds depth to his observations of the desert environment and its unique fauna. At the start of "Sahara," the author reflects on his preparation for a major expedition into the vast desert after years of contemplation. He recounts his discussions with an influential military captain that ignited his ambition to explore further into this mystical territory. After navigating the slow bureaucratic process for approval, Buchanan and his companions embark on a treacherous 3,500-mile journey characterized by hardships, scarce resources, and encounters with both the desert's natural beauty and its relentless challenges. The opening portion sets the stage for the extraordinary experiences and rich descriptions of life within the Sahara that unfold as the narrative progresses.
