Classic volume of writings by women travellers, now reissud with its sister volume, "Wayward Women".
Synopsis
This collection of women's travel writing dispels the notion that women shouldn't travel, by showing how there are few corners of the world that have not been visited by women travellers. There are also few difficulties, physical or emotional, real or imagined, that have not been met by women.
