The Wanderer

Here's What People Are Saying

“As an avid traveler, author, and editor, I set very high standards for the books I review. In short, this around-the-world journal is out of this world! THE WANDERER is not your typical travelogue. Rather, it’s an insightful, touching account of people and places written by an intrepid woman whose quirky approach to planning belies her superb attention to detail and understanding of culture. Don’t finalize your “bucket list” until you read this book.” ~Lynne Willard, editor and author

“Wanderlust captured and conveyed in such a delightfully contagious way, in THE WANDERER, Carole Garrison’s writing reads, and feels, like a vicarious vacation. Treat yourself!” ~Carl Root, Ph.D., Lecturer, School of Justice Studies, Eastern Kentucky University

“The Tao Te Ching says, ‘A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.’ I would say this describes Carole Garrison perfectly. THE WANDERER chronicles her journey around the world, seeking the joys of connecting with global friends made over a lifetime, experiencing some of the world’s most sacred, treasured and mystical sites, while at the same time, looking within to evaluate how she got there in the first place. It’s a journey of reflection, beauty, insight and renewed energy we can all benefit from.” ~Jana Kappeler, Kentucky acrylic/mixed media abstract artist
