.Forbidden Sands City Travel Guides > Books > Western Africa: Mali- Mauritania and Western Sahara by: Richard Trench 1989 In 1974 Richard Trench decided to undertake a journalistic investigation of the salt mines in Taoudenni, Mali, which were thought to be the site of slave labor done by prisoners. Salt mining in this part of Africa is an important part of history and lore; salt has been carried to market by camel caravan for centuries, and it was at times so rare that it was reportedly worth its weight in gold. Trench's journey required a carefully planned overland trip on camelback. Trench lived and traveled with nomads through the Sahara to Taoudenni then on to Timbuktu. His account of the journey -- his relationship with his guides, the difficulties of desert travel, encounters with government officials -- is very good reading. "Forbidden Sands" ...

.Leaf in the Wind City Travel Guides > Books > Western Africa: Mali- Mauritania and Western Sahara by: Peter Hudson 1993-10 I love to travel and I admire Hudson for taking off and spending a year traveling the African continent. This book relates his experiences in three countries: Mali, Zaire (DR of Congo), and Somalia. This was written in the eighties before two of these countries fell to pieces. It probably would not be safe to travel now with the way things are going in much of Africa. Hudson's point is the African people are wonderfully kind to strangers, even those from the West.
