The Girl in the Tent: Memoir from the Road - Paperback

by Nancy DeYoung (Author), Robin Adams (Artist), Az Noble (Illustrator)

What begins as a simple drive from Rapid City, South Dakota to Ajo, Arizona, to rent an artist's apartment unexpectedly morphs into an odyssey of trust and self-discovery covering 15,000-plus miles around the western United States for over nine months in search of the right home. Following the simple intuitive directive to "Rest and the answers will come," THE GIRL IN THE TENT encounters everything from mice to moose in her quest to relocate to a home she loves.

Told with honesty and humor and sprinkled with historical details, this delightful memoir reflects on our connection with nature, our ability to handle adversity, take things as they come, and most importantly what it means to stay in the present.
