The Woman Who Walked to Russia: A Writer's Search for a Lost Legend

I really enjoyed this book, reading it in just over a day. It is true what the other reviewers say about the actual content being more about the author than the supposed subject, but I found it to be a very accessible history lesson in regards to immigration, and the gold rush in British Colombia, as well as a thorough description of the stunning landscape. It is more a travelog I found. I am amazed someone has such an intense curiosity to unravel a story as to go through all she had to (and that there was a grant to fund it).
