Stewart is a master at weaving history and geography into cleverly reconstructed observations and encounters that range from the merely curious to the heartily bizarre. Juxtaposed against all is his unabashed fascination with unfamiliar surrounding and the isolation that comes with being alone. --Booklist <br> A Stanley Stewart travel story about a walk to the nearest corner would be a page-turner. And that is because, unlike too many other travel writers, he takes his reader on the most important trip of all: the journey of a good sentence. --The Washington Post <br> Self-deprecating and wry, Stewart is a gifted amateur in the classic tradition of Patrick Leigh Fermor; indeed, he seems to have no particular objective other than to observe and enjoy. This is not travel with a purpose; it is pure gratification, a fine addition to what is sometimes called 'loiterature.' -- New York Times Book Review <br>. . . The book is full of the kind of lively encounters most people find only in literature . . . Stewart's narrative brings the Great Wall that much closer. --USA Today <br> Stewart writes of his experiences with compassion and great charm. --Chicago Tribune <br>
