Description:
A study of the true story behind "The English Patient" In the 1930s, the Zerzura Club met once a year for dinner at the Cafe Royal in London. Ostensibly, its members were adventurers searching for the lost oases and ancient cities. In reality they were mapping the desert for military reasons.
