Lost Angel Walkabout—One Traveler’s Tales is a spirited collection of travel narratives recounting the haps, mishaps, and serendipitous adventures that give, travel-writer Linda Ballou, a sense of wonder and delight. Some of the stories like “Falling in the Footsteps of John Muir” and “Look Both Ways on Small Islands” are reflections that might make you glad you stayed home, while “River Wise” could inspire you to toss the TV clicker out the window and to explore our beautiful planet. All of the stories take you to special places where you share the sensual experience of being there without straining one muscle, getting altitude sickness, or tipping your canoe.
span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 10pt">In roughly twenty short stories, travel writer Linda Ballou takes us with her up active volcanoes in Costa Rica, down hundred-mile rivers in the Yukon Territory, over combination jumps and oxers in Ireland, beneath the Sea of Cortez, and along unforgettable jaunts through deserts, woods, peaks, and valleys in both hemispheres. Her tales span years of traveling—sometimes alone, occasionally with her mother or life partner, and often with others in search of soft adventure.

Wai-nani is a reflection of controversial Ka’ahumanu, the favorite wife of Kamehameha the Great. Her story begins prior to European contact and ends a year before the arrival of the missionaries and their corrupting influence upon the Hawaiian culture. Through the eyes of high chiefess, Wai-nani, experience the Hawaiian society as it existed when Captain Cook dropped anchor in Kealakekua Bay in 1779; ride the billowing seas with Eku, the wild dolphin she befriends; learn why she loved the savage, conflicted ruler destined to unite the Hawaiian Islands; walk with her as she defies ancient laws and harsh taboos of the Island people; learn how she rose to become the most powerful woman in old Hawai`i and why some remember her as the “flaw that brought down the chiefdom.”
