Testimony of possibly the most dramatic story during one journey around the world. The vehicle Tatra, the third “associate” of the two travelers, plays a significant role in the story. Was it not dramatic enough when Tatra broke in the middle of the desert? Or how about when Tatra almost slipped from a ferry into the river? And what happened when Tatra was driven by a man suffering from fever? In this book, you will learn about how Hanzelka's and Zikmund's Tatra overcame thousands of dangers in Nubia, and how it crossed the Nubian desert as the first and only private car without being accompanied by other vehicles.
