The Sahara, which is the size of China or the United States, was once a verdant land, fed by rivers and lakes. It sustained abundant plant and animal life, such as Nile perch, turtles, crocodiles, and hippos, and attracted prehistoric hunters and herders. What transformed this land of lakes into a sea of sands? In When the Sahara Was Green, Martin Williams tells the remarkable history of Earth's greatest desert-including why its climate changed, how scientists uncovered its extraordinary story, and what lessons it holds for our warming world.
