Readicker-Henderson reminds us, is a much, much more beautiful place than we usually realize.\u003cp\u003eHere the award-winning travel writer embroiders this theme over 25 essays: from a bra fence in New Zealand to mammoth hunting in the Yukon and the Zen of orange-pith-removal in Japan. Drawn to high latitudes and odd corners, Readicker-Henderson delves deeper into his search for the quietest place in the world: a quest that began with his feature for National Geographic Traveler, recognized by Best of American Travel Writing in 2007.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt turns poetic, philosophical and howlingly funny, these tales span two decades.
