The Nile: Egypt's Great River with Bettany Hughes

For 5000 years, Egypt has been shaped by one thing more than any other: the River Nile. For historian Bettany Hughes, this is the journey of a lifetime, as she sets off on a 900 mile adventure up the Nile, from its mouth to Egypt’s southern border. With the use of a timeless Nile cruise boat, Bettany travels the country and sees it as the ancient Egyptians once did, from the great river.
