Description

Three different parts of the world, but all of them dangerous, lonely places. Three different women, but all of them determined to go – and to come back alive! Robyn Davidson walked nearly 3,000 kilometres across the Australian desert – with a dog and four camels. Arlene Blum led a team of ten women to the top of Annapurna – one of the highest mountains in the world. Only eight came down again. Naomi James sailed around the world alone, on a journey lasting more than 250 days.
