Life on a Basque Mountain

An enchanting travel-writing debut, In the Footsteps of Smugglers is a humorous memoir of an English single mother who exchanges suburban life for a tiny, isolated barn high in the Basque Pyrenees. The book blends the adventures of an outsider, behind-the-scenes vignettes of daily life and historical research to produce authentic insights on all things Basque, imbued with a rhapsody on the theme of identity.
