Abstract

SINCE 1931 the Physical Department of the Egyptian Government has been issuing at intervals the volumes of a publication “The Nile Basin”, written by Drs. H. E. Hurst and P. Phillips. The earlier volumes have contained descriptive matter and statistical records of hydrological observations of the Nile and its basin. The series has now been crowned by the volume under review, which summarizes and discusses the results of thirty years’ river survey in the Sudan, upon which work Egypt has spent money both generously and fruitfully. The Nile Basin Vol. 5: The Hydrology of the Lake Plateau and Bahr El Jebel. By Dr. H. E. Hurst and Dr. P. Phillips. (Ministry of Public Works, Egypt: Physical Department Paper No. 35.) Pp. x + 251 + 103 plates. (Cairo: Ministry of Finance, 1938.) P.T. 100. 20s.
