Mysterious Sahara : The Land of Gold, of Sand, and of Ruin

Count de Prorok describes his 1925-28 expedition south from Algeria, across the Sahara, to the mountains of the Hoggar, his discovery of the tomb of Queen Tin Hinan, and his rather hasty examination of the temple of Jupiter Ammon, where Alexander the Great "became a god." Some of this material is also covered in de Prorok's "In Quest of Lost Worlds" but he goes into much more detail here, especially on the fantastic Tauregs, the giant "white" race of the Sahara. He finds evidence linking the Tauregs with medieval Europe and Atlantis. First-rate adventure.
