Summary: Travel on the edge
Comment: I liked this little book, and thought it would be very helpful to the woman to whom it seems to be addressed: a single woman who wants to travel but is afraid to go it alone. My only criticism is that some of the author's travel choices may be a bit too gritty for many of her readers. For example, I've traveled a lot, but I wouldn't consider staying in a bunk room in a youth hostel -- something highly recommended here. The author's premise is valid: go for it! And the early portion of the book aimed at getting women to overcome their fears is probably helpful. I just think few of the older women to whom this book is addressed are likely to sleep in their cars for weeks, or to take up some of the other unusual suggestions made by the author. Nevertheless, for women who want to travel alone and haven't done so yet, I strongly recommend this book.

Summary: A super little travel book
Comment: with everything you need to know about traveling solo, packing light, preplanning for smooth traveling, dressing, budgeting, and security. And, the best news: you don't have to be traveling alone to reap the benefits. This little gem is for all travelers, on your own or otherwise. And, since it is compact and fits easily into a day pack, our copy usually travels with us for that occasional refresher on the travel tips. A favorite that proves that size is not a factor in the quality of information contained in a book! We've had much larger travel guides that didn't have one half as much to share as A Foxy Old Woman's Guide to Traveling Alone. Happy reading.
