Image description

Bird's-Eye View of Mesopotamia, showing the Proposed Scheme of Irrigation. A comprehensive scheme for dealing with the irrigation of Mesopotamia and restoring the country's former fertility has been worked out by Sir William Willcocks, KCMG. In addition to the construction of the Great Hindia Barrage, it includes the suggestion of drawing the flood-water of the Euphrates and the Tigris into two great depressions, which would act as natural reservoirs and prevent inundation. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920). Note: Image has been digitally enhanced to facilitate repro.
