Sarah Marquis

Nonfiction 2014| 219 pages

Read this book now!  I loved it.  Yes, you know I have a particular fondness for true wilderness stories.  Our author is Sarah Marquis and this is the tale of her walking alone and her amazing adventures in parts of Mongolia, the Gobi Desert (which was once on my own bucket list!), China, Siberia, Laos, Thailand, and Australia (still on my list!) for three years, 2010 -2014.  While this is not her first major adventure (she walked 8700 miles across Australia earlier) but that in no way diminishes the power and the enthralling, fascinating unusual nature of her storytelling.

I highly recommend Wild by Nature.  It took me less than two days to read it.

Thank you René for this perfect loan at the perfect time!  (I have a copy if anyone wants it).
