Great book - so much to admire in this woman!,

This review is from: Amazing Traveler Isabella Bird, Second Edition (Paperback)
I loved this book. What a character! Not only did she travel the world, but she did it with her own money and under her own leadership. Admittedly, she hired lots of support (whole entourages in some cases) but nevertheless, the journies were hers and hers alone. I've done alot of traveling as a single woman, and even these days it takes some courage and self-reliance. I have much admiration for Isabella Bird, who went to all these far-flung places before there were all the modern conveniences and attitudes. Phenomenal woman!

This review is from: Amazing Traveler Isabella Bird, Second Edition (Paperback)
Everyone should learn about Isabella Bird's life. She was, (and still is,) hands down, the most amazing traveler of all time. Even though she had trouble with illness and depression, for a woman of that time period to accomplish what she did is nothing short of a miracle. Very motivating. All young girls should be made to read this. It motivates independence.
