A Woman's Passion for Travel: True Stories of World Wanderlust

A Woman's Passion for Travel: True Stories of World Wanderlust Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The writers — including Frances Mayes, Anne Lamott, Pam Houston, Jo Ann Beard, Candace Dempsey, and Ann Jones — travel with such evocative attentiveness that the reader is brought along every vivid step of the way — to a peaceful Spanish church, a Laotian boat, a Tunisian desert, and to "a field of wildflowers . . . like colored marbles" in Umbria.
