«Los amantes del Nilo» is Richard Hall's historical chronicle of Sam and Florence Baker's African adventure, published by Mondadori in hardback (336 pages, in Spanish).
It tells the story of Samuel Baker, who meets Florence Sass at a slave auction in Widdin in 1858 and makes her his inseparable companion. Together they sail up the Nile from Cairo, cross the desert, and in 1864 reach the shores of Lake Albert in search of the river's sources. Richard Hall draws on ten years of research to bring this couple and their extraordinary journey back to memory.
Part of the «Las mil y una voces» collection, with a prologue by Cristina Morató. Edition with illustrated dust jacket.
For readers interested in 19th-century African exploration and biographies of figures who defied the limits of their era.
