Jewel of the Kalahari Okavango BOOK

Most rivers flow into the sea. The Okavango flows inland into the Kalahari. Running southwards from the Angolan highlands into northern Botswana, it spreads out into a vast shallow delta of a million channels and lagoons. It has transformed the arid wilderness of the Kalahari, creating an entirely new and fascinating web of life which has adapted to an abundance of water-in sharp contrast to the harsh struggle for survival in the surrounding grasslands and woodlands and the dry remnants of an enormous ancient lake, Makgadikgadi.
