When I was 28, in 1978, I started OAT (Overseas Adventure Travel) with the idea that there was a touch of inquisitiveness and adventure in all of us.  I believed that as an adventure travel company owner I could help others transform their lives through travel.  They would see the world differently . . . perhaps breaking stereotypes of people and places, accepting differences of other people, enriching their own inner lives as they explore outwardly and grasping the importance of nature, culture, history, and our earth. John Delaney’s choice poems, reflections, and photographs in Nile—itself inspired by an OAT trip to Egypt and sites along the Nile—are a tribute to the transformation that happens to us and others as we journey into new lands.

–Judi Wineland, founder of O.A.T. (Overseas Adventure Travel)

A chapbook of poems inspired by ancient Egyptian monuments and modern Egyptian tradesmen, documented in color photographs—all enabled by side trips taken near, and days spent drifting down, the Nile River. 13 poems, 18 color photographs.

John Delaney retired after 35 years in the Dept. of Rare Books and Special Collections of Princeton University Library, where he was head of manuscripts processing and then, for the last 15 years, curator of historic maps. He’s written a number of works on cartography, including Strait Through: Magellan to Cook and the Pacific; First X, Then Y, Now Z: An Introduction to Landmark Thematic Maps; and Nova Caesarea: A Cartographic Record of the Garden State, 1666-1888.
