Review:
Zeppa's book suggests, too, what most other contemporary travel books do not: that there are still a few places left in the world so strange and wondrous that a journey there has the power to transform the traveller...[an] engaging memoir.
Book Description:
Beyond the Sky and the Earth is an exotic and romantic story, an exhilarating testament to the transformative power of travel if one's mind and heart are open to it.
