A Woman's Path: Best Women's Spiritual Travel Writing (Travelers' Tales)
The "Travelers' Tales" series continues to excel in informative and exciting writing, taking readers on adventurous armchair journeys. In addition to focusing on food, humor, countries, etc., the collection contains numerous titles written solely from a female perspective. Joining the shelves with Gutsy Women, A Women's World, and Women in the Wild, to name a few, this book is a sensitive exploration of women's lives that have been unexpectedly and spiritually touched by travel experiences. From over 30 narratives, readers develop a bond with writers who share intimate and moving experiences from their lives. Through such activities as kayaking, trekking, solo journeys, and urban exploration these women discover independence, peace, and better self-understanding. The reader will vicariously journey on a pilgrimage in Spain, observe a sense of enlightenment in India, and be introduced to a wandering yogi. Heavily supported with enjoyable sidebars, a trademark of "Travelers' Tales" books, this work is highly recommended for its significant and unique approach to the sharing of women's travels.-Jo-Anne Mary Benson, Ontario, CanadaCopyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.
