Drive Me Wild: A Western Odyssey

AUTHOR OF THE YEAR, Focus on Women Magazine

COLORADO BOOK AWARD FINALIST

It began with a dream of hitting the road; an adventure into unknown places, a spontaneous zigzag across the wild west. A simple life, yes. A purge of possessions, yes yes. Ninety-five per cent in fact, including the house. Fun and discovery were the goals of these married writers, as their route unfolded from British Colombia to the tip of the Baja. Another agenda coalesced, however, when wild mothers began to show up, their young at their sides, in a purposeful procession of jaw-dropping awe and pure terror. Moose, gray whales, mountain lions, dolphins and grizzlies. Feral mother to human mother, this was no ordinary road trip. The journey of the soul was the answer. Nealson's writing life, marriage and the very essence of the wild - her own and the planet's - were the questions. This book takes you places you will never go, into spiritual realms inaccessible to most. Drive Me Wild: a travel book for the soul.
