Product Description
Book Description
A delightful companion for anyone embarking on a journey, Women Travelers is amply illustrated with photographs, engravings and etchings of intrepid women travelers.
Step into another era with this exquisite journal compiled and designed by the gifted researcher, writer, book designer and collector of ephemera, Barbara Hodgson. With its quality bindings and paper, this journal will be a pleasure to hold and to use. It comes complete with a ribbon bookmark. Besides providing fascinating windows on the past, it will inspire modern-day “journalists” to keep a record of their own lives and times.

Barbara Hodgson is a book designer, a writer and a founding partner at Byzantium Books in Vancouver, B.C. She is the author of three novels and several works of non-fiction, including In the Arms of Morpheus, No Place for a Lady and Opium. The illustrations found in her books are, for the most part, from her unmanageable collection of travel ephemera.

Whoops!, Mar 13 2006

This review is from: Women Travelers (Hardcover)
I thought this book was a journal about Women's travels throughout history. It is actually a blank journal. My mistake.
