Go Girl: Black Woman's Book of Travel and Adventure Book

Go Girl! is part travelogue, part guidebook for African American women. Author Elaine Lee first caught the travel bug from her mother, but it wasn't until she was in her late 30s that she realized travel could mean more than just a vacation. She began to systematically plan her life and finances in order to make travel a focal point, an accomplishment detailed inthe book's concluding essay. But Lee gives the reader plenty to think about before she reveals her own secrets--there's Maya Angelou in Africa, Alice Walker in Bali, Gwendolyn Brooks in Russia, and Jill Nelson on Martha's Vineyard, to name just a few of the 52 women who contribute their travel stories to Lee's book of travel and adventure. Along with the inspiration come snippets of practical advice and some very useful resources listed at the end--everything from travel magazines to cruises geared toward African American travelers.Read More

  • Product Description

    The cruise ship Lakonia departed Southampton on December 19, 1963, on a Christmas voyage to the Canary Islands. Three days later, north of Madeira, a fire broke out. In the ensuing confusion and panic, a small group of passengers, including the author's parents, were left stranded without lifeboats and drowned. Barrington, just nineteen, left England and went to live in a small town in northern Spain. Lifesaving is the story of those three years, of the people, the places, and of a young woman struggling to become an adult in the shadow of sudden and staggering loss.
