Reseña del editor

Fathers have a profound impact on their daughters, shaping their abilities to love and ultimately to venture forth, physically and emotionally. At the same time, daughters both inadvertently and purposefully break down the artificial walls of masculinity that men sometimes build with a purity and power that mothers, wives, and girlfriends cannot. Weaving together the thrill of adventure with the unique issues surrounding that connection, Far from Home examines what happens when father and daughter embark side by side on the adventure of their choosing. Veteran outdoor travel writer Mark Jenkins exposes his daughter to the mountains at an early age, but discovers that the lure of pop culture can eclipse his best efforts to teach her about the outdoors. Anna Todd travels to Lebanon nearly twenty years after her father, a Canadian journalist, was killed while covering the war there. Amy Engeler climbs Maine’s highest peak with her father-in-law and two children. Dan Glick learns how to be both father and mother to his adolescent daughter on a round-the-world trip. These remarkable essays and the many others in this insightful, exciting collection are sure to entice and inspire adventurous fathers, daughters, and armchair travelers alike.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
