The Journeys of Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland
Paperback
Publication Date: 11/04/2017
In 1889, journalist Nellie Bly challenged herself to turn the fictional journey of Jules Verne's Around the World in 80 Days into a reality. Elizabeth Bisland followed, and single-handedly put Cosmopolitan on the map. This book combines the full narratives of both Bly and Bisland as they circumnavigate the globe. Follow these intrepid young writers as together they shatter expectations and set the stage for the women's travel narratives like Gilberts' Eat Pray Love and Savage's Miles from Nowhere that readers are familiar with today.
