This anthology of work by members of the Bay Area Travel Writers transports readers to destinations around the world, moving from Tibet to Morocco to the Philippines, from Ireland to Italy to Madagascar, from a windswept island in the South Atlantic to the North Pole.

This anthology of work by members of the Bay Area Travel Writers transports readers to destinations around the world, moving from Tibet to Morocco to the Philippines, from Ireland to Italy to Madagascar, from a windswept island in the South Atlantic to the North Pole. Here are an inexperienced hiker taking on the rigors of Yosemite, a young traveler on a budget trying not to buy a rug in Istanbul and a military-history buff imagining his way into the pitched battles fought in the South Pacific in WWII. The places are vividly rendered, but it is the people in these pages who stand out: Meet the owner of a cave hotel in Cappadocia reviving a traditional Turkish garden, a Canadian native chief using stories to annotate his ancestral lands and a winemaker populating Detroit's vacant lots with grapevines. This volume features three stories written by the distinguished travel writer and editor Georgia Hesse and three that have been awarded prizes in her name. The anthology also features contributions by renowned writer-editors Don George and Catharine Hamm, which speak to travel writing's past and potential, post-COVID future. This is a book to inspire writers (and aspiring writers) of travel literature and to entertain readers who like stories full of wonder and change.
