The colours change from Prussian blue, speckled with turquoise, white horses, to fifty shades of grey, with the horizon a thin silver line and a Biblical display of golden sunrays, spilling down.'For Celia Imrie, travel is not simply a passion, it's a way of life. She is never happier than when on the move, especially if she is moving slowly...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoin Celia as she journeys back in time and shares the most memorable adventures of her life, riding ocean waves and iconic railways around the world. From tours across Australia with Glenda Jackson, Arctic quests in search of the Northern lights and chaotic cross-country journeys through Europe; to rolling through America's sweeping plains on Amtrak, glamorous voyages on the Queen Mary 2, and unforgettable trips on India's legendary trains - this is a vibrant memoir of pure escapism, the perfect antidote to turbulent times. All told with Celia's signature wit and humour, the journeys may be long, but they are never dull - especially when her travel companion Fidelis Morgan is in tow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrama seems to follow the two actresses wherever they go. Richly observed and full of charm, this is a love letter to adventure, friendship, life in the slow lane and the enduring joy that rewards curiosity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"THE CLEEVE BOOKSHOP LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57100551618935,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/0729\/3737\/files\/theeleganthustler.jpg?v=1779353288","url":"https:\/\/thecleevebookshop.co.uk\/products\/the-elegant-hustler-my-life-in-adventures-signed-first-edition","provider":"The Cleeve Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
