As a human document it astounds me . . . and I marvel at its literary qualities . . . Nothing can shadow the stature of this book or how enriched Ive been by reading it, or my admiration for Christopher Rushs achievement. It is to be treasured not just on the page, but in the heart and spirit Stewart Conn, Poet Laureate of Scotland An inspired Mozartian requiem, beautiful and terrible, wonderful and awful . . . As powerful a piece of writing as you are likely to read this year . . . [Christopher Rushs] books stick in the mind when others fade from the memory the instant one puts them down. A lyrical, passionate, sensuous writer . . . Think of George Mackay Brown, or Dylan Thomas The Sunday Herald A powerful work of travel writing ....a singularly unforgettable travel memoir. Very highly recommended. To Travel Hopefully is a thoroughly "reader friendly," armchair travelogue. -The Midwest Book Review
