"Edith Wharton's reputation as a novelist is at a peak, but her travel writing has been neglected. This volume does something to remedy the fact...These are the writings of a strong-willed, individual woman completely uninterested in 'given' ideas about places and people, and capable of judgements which are as interesting and true to us as they were surprising and doubtful to her contemporaries."Wharton, Edith is the author of 'Edith Wharton Abroad Selected Travel Writings, 1888-1920' with ISBN 9780312161200 and ISBN 0312161204.
