Negative Positive
Title: Engaging combination of personal experience and history
Review: Wheeler combines historical accounts of exploration with her own physical and emotional experiences. I found this book in a library, read it, purchased it and then re-read it. Her accounts of her experiences with scientists and their work are fascinating, and she made me laugh aloud several times. Her account of shared time at a remote site with an artist is an intriguing, interesting 'inside' picture of two artists sharing a unique environment, and contributing to each other's work. Her descriptions of her deeper reactions to the landscape are well done and left me realizing how difficult it must be to write well about such an experience
