Give Me the World
Give Me the World | Leila Hadley
1 post | 1 read | 4 to read
Leila Hadley, twenty-five years old, divorced, restless, bored with her succesful career, set off for the Far East with her six-year-old son for an adventure that would last a lifetime. Now available for the first time in many years, Give Me the World is the classic memoir of that trip--to Manilla and Hong Kong, Siam and Singapore, India and Damascus, and on around the world. Told with a remarkable sense of emotion and observation, it is an evocative record of what meets the eye and heart of the traveler. A timeless and moving personal story, Give Me the World is proof of the paradox that a 60-foot-long ship deck can enclose complete and boundless freedom.

In the 1950's Leila Hadley sets off to explore Asia with her six year old son. One of my favorite travel narratives. #greatexplorations #marchmadness
