The book highlights his single-handed global circumnavigation aboard the sloop Spray. Joshua Slocum was the first person to sail around the world alone, so no wonder the book was an immediate success and highly influential in inspiring later travelers.

  • The Role of the Nile River in Ancient Egyptian Civilization - cover

    The Role of the Nile River in...

    The Nile River was more than just a water source for the ancient Egyptians; it was the very foundation upon which their civilization thrived. Stretching over 4,000 miles, the river provided sustenance, enabled agriculture, and shaped daily life in profound ways. Without the Nile, the flourishing civilization that we now associate with ancient Egypt would have been impossible. 
    The river’s importance was most evident in its role as a source of life. Flowing from the heart of Africa to the Mediterranean Sea, the Nile brought fertile silt during its annual inundation. This natural event transformed the arid desert landscape into a lush and arable strip of land, ideal for farming. The nutrient-rich soil deposited by the flooding allowed ancient Egyptians to grow crops like wheat, barley, and flax, which were essential for food, trade, and textile production. This dependable agricultural cycle fostered stability, reducing the risks of famine and ensuring food security for the population. 
    The river also played a crucial role in sustaining both humans and animals. Its waters provided drinking sources not only for the people but also for livestock, which were integral to agricultural practices. Additionally, the Nile supported a wide variety of fish and attracted wildlife to its banks, allowing ancient Egyptians to develop fishing and hunting practices that supplemented their diet. Daily life revolved around the river, as it supplied the necessary resources for cooking, cleaning, and irrigation.

    The Narrow Smile is a portrait of the Pathan and their highland home on either side of the Pakistan-Afghan frontier. Peter Mayne grew up in India, and later spent four years on the Northwest Frontier during the Second World War. He delighted in the company of these fierce but hospitable highlanders, who were as hard as the mountains that assured their independence but democratic to the point that no man admitted the right of another to lead him. In 1953, Mayne took a long journey to see what had become of his old friends in the high, flower-filled valleys on the roof of the world. But peace had always been a relative concept on this frontier, where Afghanistan was now eyeing Pashtun lands in a new iteration of the Great Game. Mayne's misadventures are sometimes serious, often very funny, and at all times compassionate.
