IV.—Wells of the North-Eastern Sudan
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
The Anglo-Egyptian Sudan territory covers an area of about a million square miles, throughout which the development of communications is of prime importance to the Government. The country varies from barren desert in the north to tropical jungle in the south, and one passes through all intermediate grades between these extremes. In the area between latitudes 12° and 22° north, water is the most important factor in determining the positions of routes, and it is with part of this area that it is proposed to deal. South of this, water is more abundant and other factors have to be considered.
