About this product

Product Information

In 1872, Isabella Bird, daughter of a clergyman, set off alone to the Antipodes 'in search of health' and found she had embarked on a life of adventurous travel. In 1873, wearing Hawaiian riding dress, she rode her horse through the American Wild West, a terrain only newly opened to pioneer settlement. The letters that make up this volume were first published in 1879. They tell of magnificent, unspoiled landscapes and abundant wildlife, of encounters with rattlesnakes, wolves, pumas and grizzly bears, and her reactions to the volatile passions of the miners and pioneer settlers. A classic account of a truly astounding journey.

  • Amazing

    What an adventure this little lady went on! To do what she did, mostly on her own, is simply amazing to me. I wish I could've been with her. To see the beautiful land and mountains, which she most richly describes, before all of the tourism, and countless cabins,and houses that now crowd that area. It must've been incredible for her. It's handy to have a dictionary app near by to 'look up" those long ago English words she uses, so you can really get the gist of what she is saying in her descriptions. I loved it!

  • Ms. Bird makes the scenes come alive. I would love to have known her.

    A remarkable adventure that few in this generation would attempt. Ms. Bird could make the best of every situation and was undaunted by dangerous people and nature's elements.

  • A rare female icon in the world of exploration.

    Terrific rare tale of a woman’s brave and incredible exploration into an American wilderness still mostly uninhabited and uncivilized.
