SAHARA

|
The Sahara’s most beautiful portion is the Ténéré desert of
Niger, an endless-seeming field of dunes the size of Germany.
Here courtly Tuareg tribesmen size you up like the rakish
pirates of this sand sea they are.—Donovan Webster, writer
and Sahara veteran.
Explore the Sahara with writer William Langewiesche in the
October 1999 issue of TRAVELER.
