For over two decades, Travelers Tales has been releasing books that can be most accurately described as the literary equivalent of a group of travelers gathered around a dim cafe, sipping pints or prosecco, and exchanging their finest tales.

Now, Travelers Tales is proud to present The Best Womens Travel Writing, Volume 12: True Stories from Around the World—the latest installment in the best-selling, award-winning series that invites you to join intrepid female nomads on their global adventures, exploring new places, meeting new faces, and discovering new facets of themselves.

In his review of the previous volume of The Best Womens Travel Writing, Andrew McCarthy of The New York Times Book Review noted, "In story after story, the refreshing absence of bluster and bravado, coupled with the optimism necessary for bold travel, create a unifying narrative that testifies to the personal value and cultural importance of leaving the perceived safety of home and venturing into the wider world."

The essays in this volume are as diverse as the destinations, delving into themes of kindness, transformation, nature, friendship, family, strength, and resilience.
