Through dramatic monologues, this collection explores the journeys of self-discovery of six historical figures. It features Danish author Isak Dinesen, who found her creative voice in Africa, and 18th-century explorer Col. John May on the Ohio frontier. The collection also includes a personification of the Hindu Living Goddess, 19th-century British Consul Atkins Hamerton, and explorers Sir Richard Burton and John Hanning Speke, who sought the source of the Nile. Each narrative highlights their unique experiences and contributions to history.
