Dune range in the Western Desert, Egypt

Kit ConstableMaxwell and Dr Raymond Bird drove across the Algerian Sahara during October/November 2007, to research some of the benchmarks of French colonialism of the late nineteenth century.

This was the time that Père Foucould set up his mountain hermitage at Assekrem, and his soldier friend Captain Laperrine engaged Touareg tribesmen and established the first 'Camel Corps'.

The expedition has now been succesfully completed. A website report will follow, and a lecture is in the course of preparation.

Interim day reports were published on http://kitmax.blogspot.com/

For lectures and venues, please contact Kit by email.
