Tracks / Annapurna: A woman's place / At one with the sea / by Robyn Davidson -- by Arlene Blum -- by Naomi James.

Three different parts of the world, but all of them dangerous, lonely places. Three different women, but all of them determined to go - and to come back alive!. Robyn Davidson walked nearly 3,000 kilometres across the Australian desert - with a god and four camels. Arlene Blum led a team of ten women to the top of Annapurna - one of the highest mountains in the world. Only eight came down again. Naomi James sailed around the world alone, on a journey lasting more than 250 days. Three real adventures - three really adventurous women.
