A report from Egypt on the building of the Aswan High Dam
Far up the River Nile, in the rocky wastes of the Nubian desert, a massive engineering project is now the focus of a nation's vision of plenty. Egypt's four-hundred-million-pound Aswan High Dam is beginning to take shape.
From a visit to the amazing Aswan site, where nearly 30,000 men are at work night and day, GODFREY TALBOT has brought back recordings which tell the dramatic story of the new Giant of the Nile
