Inside Sahara features over 300 breathtaking photographs taken by Basil Pao during his journey with Michael Palin across the world's largest desert. Covering nine countries, Pao's photographs expertly capture the magical appeal of the region, and the extraordinarily diverse range of landscapes, cultures and peoples it is home to. Intimate shots of Michael and his film crew at work and relaxing 'off-air' give a fascinating insight into the making of the TV series. The photographs are preceded by an introduction written by Michael Palin.
