Synopsis

Anyone whose passport has been stamped a few times knows the surest method of keeping the travel fire alive: by reading and telling stories from the road, passing them along like a torch in a relay race. From Travelers' Tales comes The Best Women's Travel Writing, Volume 9: True Stories from Around the World--the ninth collection in the annual best-selling, award-winning series that invites readers to ride shotgun alongside intrepid female nomads as they travel the globe to discover new places, people, and facets of themselves. The stories in this edition are as diverse as the destinations, the common thread being fresh, compelling storytelling that will make you laugh, weep, wish you were there, or be glad you weren't. In The Best Women's Travel Writing, Volume 9: True Stories from Around the World, readers will: Tangle with snakes and alligators in Bangladesh Chase tornadoes with Chinese celebrities Dodge fireballs while half-naked in Ecuador Get stuck in the mud by the Ganges in India Hunt frogs in a Louisiana bayou Get cheerfully deported from South Africa Be transformed by a Mexican revolution Survive close encounters with rhinos in Namibia Experience life under niqab in Egypt Find love in a tree house in Laos ...and much, much more.
