TRACKS - ROBYN DAVIDSON TASCHENBUCH

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE  Robyn Davidson's opens the memoir of her perilous journey across 1
700 miles of hostile Australian desert to the sea with only four camels and a dog for company
with the following words: "I experienced that sinking feeling you get when you know you have
conned yourself into doing something difficult and there's no going back."   Enduring
sweltering heat  fending off poisonous snakes and lecherous men  chasing her camels when they
get skittish and nursing them when they are injured  Davidson emerges as an extraordinarily
courageous heroine driven by a love of Australia's landscape  an empathy for its indigenous
people  and a willingness to cast away the trappings of her former identity. Tracks is the
compelling  candid story of her odyssey of discovery and transformation.    "An unforgettably
powerful book."-Cheryl Strayed  author of Wild   Now with a new postscript by Robyn Davidson.
