Voices on the Great Wall - Beatrice Crawford

From the moment Batrice Crawford steps onto the Great Wall, it casts a spell on her. A feeling of communion overwhelms her at her first encounter with that awesome construction. At the same time as she is meeting intrepidly the physical challenge of her 100km trek on the Great Wall, or experiencing joyfully a few culture shocks, she is also discovering renewed strength on her journey as a bereaved parent. The engaging style of this travel memoir draws the reader into a fascinating story enriched by humourous observations and insightful dialogue.
