About The Gallivanter Saga:
The thrilling adventures of a ragtag team of world explorers, navigating danger and discovery in the Roaring Twenties.
As the Gallivanter Expedition prepares to travel the globe in their Model Ts, young Edith has only one goal: to do whatever it takes to be on that team.
When she impulsively drops out of school to join the ragtag group of explorers, taking the stage name Andiamo Gallivanter, she finds the life she always dreamed about.
Together, the daring adventurers push the boundaries of discovery, navigating exotic new cities, tribes, and danger.
Instead of settling into the predictable life of a respectable lady, Andiamo settles into the driver’s seat of her automobile, narrowly escaping peril as the Gallivanter Expedition weaves through Spain and North Africa on the first leg of their world tour.
As Andiamo crashes through society’s barriers, she also discovers who she really is—and where she really belongs.
Dramatic and exciting, capturing the lure of faraway places in a romantic era, this is the perfect story for a modern audience. Andiamo’s name—and her story—are unforgettable.
