Summaries and Reviews
Summary
With only the most basic necessities to sustain them and spending most of their time above 10,000 feet, Dervla Murphy, her nine-year-old daughter Rachel and Juana, an elegant mule, clambered the length of mountainous Peru. This is the story of their extraordinary adventure along the mountain paths.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
The eight feet referenced in the title belong to Dervla Murphy, her nine-year-old daughter, and an elegant mule, who together clambered the length of Peru, from Cajamarca near the border with Ecuador, to Cuzco, the ancient Inca capital—traveling over 1,300 miles in high altitudes. Despite extreme discomfort and occasional danger, mother and daughter, a formidable duo, were unflagging in their sympathetic response to the perilous beauty and impoverished people of the Andes.
