Ten years of A Woman's Guide to the Wild!
More than 30,000 copies sold. This book has a life of its own. It's been spotted in National Park bookstores, feminist conferences in Poland, on lounge chairs along Lake Michigan, in the Wall Street Journal and the Japanese Columbia Sportswear Catalogue and pretty much everywhere in between. It is now available in French translation.
Thank you, everyone that has read and supported my work. It's still available everywhere books are sold.
