Wanderlust is the true story of Ida Pfeiffer (1797-1858), one of
the most remarkable female travellers who ever lived - a housewife
who decided to follow her dreams despite the strong disapproval of
society. At a time when it was considered utterly impossible,
Pfeiffer set off alone to travel the world. Along the way, she
survived storms at sea, parched deserts, plague, malaria, drowning,
earthquakes, robbers, murderers, head hunters and cannibals. She
became the first woman to circle the globe alone - and then the
first to do so twice. As a result of her incredible exploits and
her best-selling travel books, Pfeiffer became one of the most
famous women in the world in the nineteenth century. Hers is a tale
that culminates in spies, intrigue, a botched revolution and a
remarkable career cut tragically short by one voyage too many.
