In this exquisite book, Steinbach searches for the answer to this question in some of the most beautiful and exciting places in the world: Paris, where she finds a soul mate; Oxford, where she takes a course on the English village; Milan, where she befriends a young woman about to be married. Beautifully illustrated with postcards from her journeys, this revealing and witty book transports you into a fascinating inner and outer journey, an unforgettable voyage of discovery. 1388926 2000 Without Reservations: The Travels of an Independent Woman total:823|5:203|4:304|3:234|2:71|1:11| 823 3086 1390 186 5 4 false false Fri Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Jul 16 17:15:48 -0700 2007 Mon Jul 16 17:33:28 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 2 false false Sun Sep 28 15:43:43 -0700 2008 Fri Oct 10 20:29:17 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 2 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2001 Thu Oct 11 07:42:47 -0700 2007 Thu Oct 11 07:43:02 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 2 false false Thu Sep 18 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 01 07:44:27 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 18 17:25:14 -0700 2008 1
