Tvedt Terje

Summary

Terje Tvedt: Nile: biography of the largest river

The Nile flows through three climate zones and eleven countries where more than a thousand nations and almost half a billion people live. This book tells the fascinating story of the great economic, political and mythical role of the Nile - as an engine of the economy, as a source of power, as a recipient of sacrifices, as a river that springs from Paradise itself.

The uprising in Egypt, Joseph Kony and the Lord's Resistance Army, the wars in the Horn of Africa, the African revival and the Islamist revolution in Sudan; Famous British and Forgotten Norwegian Explorers - The Book of the Nile. The biography of the largest river offers us context for all these phenomena, but also for many others. By assigning the main role to the Nile River, a whole new story is created about Africa and the way the rest of the world treated that continent. At the same time, the book takes us on a journey along the longest and most complex river in the world, from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea to its sources in the heart of Africa. Slowly and systematically, following the pulse of the river flow through history, we uncover secrets and stories from the era of Pharaoh, Caesar and Cleopatra, through Napoleon, Churchill and Mussolini to Clinton's and Bush's actions in the Nile basin. Combined, all these stories allow us to understand the current and dramatic struggle for supremacy on the Nile, a struggle whose outcomes will reverberate throughout world history.
