Cr�ticas:

'A show very much in the Bear Grylls groove' Matt Baylis, Daily Express

'A charging hippopotamus, an attack by heavily armed militiamen and the loss of a colleague were just a few of the travails endured by a former Parachute Regiment officer who has become the first person to walk the length of the Nile.'
Ben Farmer, Daily Telegraph

'It's an eventful journey, and not always pleasantly so: this early part of the trek is marred by a mugging and by genuine tragedy.' -- TV Choice, Guardian

'Levison Wood gets a lot more than he bargained for in his drama-filled TV-tie in Walking the Nile. The book is actually better than the show, giving Wood space to explore the locals lives and the dangerous politics of the countries he's trampling through' -- Wanderlust

Rese�a del editor:

A major Channel 4 series and a Sunday Times bestseller His journey is 4,250 miles long. He is walking every step of the way, camping in the wild, foraging for food, fending for himself against multiple dangers. He is passing through rainforest, savannah, swamp, desert and lush delta oasis. He will cross seven, very different countries. No one has ever made this journey on foot. In this detailed, thoughtful, inspiring and dramatic book, recounting Levison Wood's walk along the length of the Nile, he will uncover the history of the Nile, yet through the people he meets and who will help him with his journey, he will come face to face with the great story of a modern Africa emerging out of the past. Exploration and Africa are two of his great passions - they drive him on and motivate his inquisitiveness and resolution not to fail, yet the challenges of the terrain, the climate, the animals, the people and his own psychological resolution will throw at him are immense. The dangers are very real, but so is the motivation for this ex-army officer. If he can overcome the mental and physical challenges, he will be walking into history....
