From the Publisher:
Some of the extraordinary women whose writings are included in this splendid collection are observers of the world in which they wander, their prose rich in description, remarkable in detail. Others are more active participants in the culture they are visiting. Often they are storytellers, weaving tales about the people they meet. Whether it is curiosity about the world, a thirst for adventure, or escape from personal tragedy, all these women are united in approaching their journeys with wit, intelligence, and compassion for those encountered along the way.
About the Author:
Mary Morris is the author of seven books. She has travelled extensively throughout the world with her partner, Larry O'Connor, a Canadian journalist who worked with her on this anthology .
