Women & Travel

Maiden Voyages: Writings of Women Travellers
edited by Mary Morris, in collaboration with Larry O'Connor

Whether it is Edith Wharton marveling at the magical beauty of a Marrakech palace garden, Mildred Cable wondering at dust demons, phantom voices, and mirages emerging from the Gobi Desert, or Joan Didion surveying the trappings of violence and power in present day Bogota, the women gathered in this anthology show as much of themselves as they show of the strange and wonderful places they visit.

"If the exploring of foreign lands is not the highest end or the most useful occupation of feminine existence, it is at least more improving, as well as more amusing, than crochet work."
--Mabel Sharman Crawford, 1863
Paperback 438 pages - 5 1/8" x 8" - (1993)
