Walk with us in the woods with Bill Bryson, swim underwater with Jacques Cousteau, tour with 8 women in a Model T, visit Alaska, discover some very dangerous plants, travel with William Bartram in the Carolinas (circa 1791) and spend Christmas in Illinois. If that isn't enough -- with the addition of a film -- we'll explore a small mediaeval Italian castle on the shores of the Mediterranean and discover the transformative power of landscape, space and setting!
