Autorenporträt
This book in a series of travel journals to many different parts of the world. Over the years we have kept journals of our adventures. In part we kept them for our grand-children, to inspire them to travel and appreciate the beauty of our world and its people. We also wrote them to keep track and make sense of what we'd done. The accounts contain conversations with people we met and descriptions of their everyday lives as well as accounts of our trips. See www.leveretcroft.com
