Decades after recovering from polio, many aging Americans are grappling with an emergence of new pain, weakness, and fatigue. This unforeseen symphony of symptoms is a central fact of many polio survivors¿ lives. In Traveling Without A Spare: A Survivor¿s Guide to Navigating the Post-Polio Journey, Wenzel A. Leff, MD, explains how polio¿s initial attack depleted the body¿s neuromuscular reserves, so that when former polio patients begin to lose cells to the natural process of aging, they find they are truly ¿traveling without a spare.¿The author draws from his own polio experience and his forty-plus-year career in Internal Medicine to provide polio survivors and their families, caregivers, and healthcare team a clearer understanding of the stages and complexities of polio. This informative book will help survivors evaluate their own bodies and condition, and empower them to make the most of their remaining strength and mobility."With medical and scientific acumen, but also wisdom and humor, Dr. Leff has given us a well-written treatise on post-polio syndrome, as manifested through his professional and personal life."Neil R. Cashman, MDCanada Research Chair at the University of British Columbia,Scientific Director of PrioNet Canada and Chair of Post-Polio Task Force (1997-99)

Bonnie simply wanted a break after graduating from college. But unexpected things happened during a trip to Europe and she didn't return home for years. When Bonnie needed money, she did anything from working as a barmaid on an army base in Germany to helping the owner of an antique shop on a beach in Kenya; the red Volkswagen she bought in Germany often doubled as a hotel. Readers will be transported as the author attempts to drive from Cairo to Capetown in a post-colonial world and later, when she falls for a tall dark Frenchman and motors with him down the Usumacinta River searching for the last surviving Mayans. The author's stories are unique and heart-racing, but she doesn't consider herself a risk-taker. Instead, she describes herself as a person determined to spend less time doing mundane things and more time living a life rich in adventure and freedom. Without a Spare is an unforgettable collection of twenty-four interconnected short stories that take place on islands, in jungles, deserts and the exotic cities of Africa, the Middle East, Mexico, Central and South America, Asia and India. The intoxicating mixture of stories are about independence, transformation, friendship, laughter, love, sex, youth--and that much doesn't have to change as one gets older if you don't let it. Without a Spare is essentially about another way to live a life.

This collection includes the first critical editions of both Anne Grant’s Letters from the Mountains (1806), one of the Romantic era’s most successful non-fictional accounts of the Scottish Highlands, and Elizabeth Isabella Spence’s Letters from the North Highlands (1816), a work that, while influenced by Grant’s Letters, attempted to move the genre of the Scottish travelogue in new directions. Read together, these volumes offer complementary views of Scottish Highland life at a time of major historical transition: Grant was offering outsiders her perspective as a long-time resident of the region, while Spence was, unapologetically, writing as a tourist. The Highlands were central to Romantic-era debates on subjects ranging from landscape and aesthetics to national identities, and, as this collection demonstrates, women were making significant contributions to those debates. The four volume set, edited by Kirsteen McCue and Pam Perkins, is accompanied by new editorial material including a new general introduction and headnotes to each work.

The ‘memsahibs’ of the British Raj in India are well-known figures today, frequently depicted in fiction, TV and film. In recent years, they have also become the focus of extensive scholarship. Less familiar to both academics and the general public, however, are the eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century precursors to the memsahibs of the Victorian and Edwardian era. Yet British women also visited and resided in India in this earlier period, witnessing first-hand the tumultuous, expansionist decades in which the East India Company established British control over the subcontinent. Some of these travellers produced highly regarded accounts of their experiences, thereby inaugurating a rich tradition of women’s travel writing about India. In the process, they not only reported events and developments in the subcontinent, they also contributed to them, helping to shape opinion and policy on issues such as colonial rule, religion, and social reform. This new set in the Chawton House Library Women’s Travel Writing series assembles seven of these accounts, six by British authors (Jemima Kindersley, Maria Graham, Eliza Fay, Ann Deane, Julia Maitland and Mary Sherwood) and one by an American (Harriet Newell). Their narratives – here reproduced for the first time in reset scholarly editions – were published between 1777 and 1854, and recount journeys undertaken in India, or periods of residence there, between the 1760s and the 1830s. Collectively they showcase the range of women’s interests and activities in India, and also the variety of narrative forms, voices and personae available to them as travel writers. Some stand squarely in the tradition of Enlightenment ethnography; others show the growing influence of Evangelical beliefs. But all disrupt any lingering stereotypes about women’s passivity, reticence and lack of public agency in this period, when colonial women were not yet as sequestered and debarred from cross-cultural contact as they would later be during the Raj. Their narratives are consequently a useful resource to students and researchers across multiple fields and disciplines, including women’s writing, travel writing, colonial and postcolonial studies, the history of women’s educational and missionary work, and Romantic-era and nineteenth-century literature. This volume includes two texts, Ann Deane, A Tour Through the Upper Provinces of Hindostan (1823) and Julia Maitland, Letters from Madras (1846).
