Description
When a young Paige Parker meets investment guru Jim Rogers, little does she know the immense world she would see and, eventually, seek to change.
Jim takes her on a three-year road trip to set a Guinness World Record, but it is Paige who soon takes the steering wheel and makes the journey her own.
On the epic drive, Paige’s worldview is turned upside down. She meets women from every walk of life, monks in China, boy soldiers in Angola and oppressive patriarchy in too many countries. Yet she walks away with a profound faith in humankind, and ultimately makes her home in Singapore.
“To witness her education by the world and her coming of age was to see a beautiful, intelligent naif become the women she is today…eager to do good and bring change.”
– Jim Rogers, in the afterword
