PARIS - GERTRUDE STEIN
S
avannah, Georgia had a great writer in Flannery O'Connor. Paris, France made the likes of Ernest Hemmingway and Gertrude Stein. One of the finest writers of Biographies on the web is Ellen Cotton. Ellen's work has been noted many places. Her latest work is on Gertrude Stein. I would strongly suggest you give it a viewing, especially if you love Paris in the thirties! And in her Ellen's Place one finds biographies of Marilyn Monroe and Georgia O'Keefe among others. Well worth a visit.

Hi Dan,
Well, I just found your site... amazing I hadn't found it before
with all the travel surfing I do, but I was surfing for my own links, found
American Borders, thanks for the mention. Just returned from China, rode a Chang Jiang sidecar bike from Beijing to the Tibetan border and back, by myself, which was a big mistake... got very lonely in China, unlike in Africa, where I also traveled alone (by bicycle, long ago), the people were pretty cold, with a few notable exceptions. I sent dispatches home a couple of times a week (their phone system there is awesome!) the site is at
http://www.verbum.com/jaunt/ along with American Borders.
By the way, after a long vacation in my dad's garage, the Ural is
up and running around San Francisco and Marin, at least til it starts
raining.--Best to you--(Carla King)

ANOTHER TRAVEL WRITER WHO WILL NOT BORE YOU !!!!!
Edward Abbey
"About ten years ago I took a job as a seasonal park ranger in a place called Arches National Monument near the little town of Moab in southeast Utah. Why I went there no longer matters; what I found there is the subject of this book. My job began on the first of April and ended on the last day of September. I liked the work and the canyon country and returned the following year for a second season. I would have returned the third year too and each year thereafter but unfortunately for the Arches, a primitive place when I first went there, was developed and improved so well that I had to leave." Edward Abbey - The introduction to Desert Solitaire.
Edward Abbey is the author of Desert Solitaire, one of the great travel books of all time.
