In a wonderfully evocative collection of her travel writing and
reportage from over five decades, Jan Morris - a constant traveller
- has produced a unique portrait of the twentieth century. Ranging
from New York to Venice, Sydney to Berlin, and the Middle East to
South Africa, Jan Morris was a witness to such seminal moments as
the Eichmann trial, the first ascent of Everest, the fall of the
Berlin Wall and the handover of Hong Kong. Offering a tremendously
perceptive and highly personal view of the world, she is as much
concerned with conveying the 'feel' of these moments as the events
themselves. And, as ever, she displays her unique and inimitable
literary style, at once funny, wise and sad. Jan Morris's
collection of travel writing and reportage spans over five decades
and includes such titles as Venice, Coronation Everest, Hong Kong,
Spain, Manhattan '45, A Writer's World and the Pax Britannica
Trilogy. Hav, her novel, was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and
the Arthur C. Clarke Award. 'A glorious compendium of adventure and
wisdom' Pico Iyer
