The Long Way Home: Detours and Discoveries

In a travel memoir that ventures from his small-town upbringing to vastly different cultures around the globe, Tom Montgomery Fate comes to define “home” not as a physical location, but as a way of belonging. “Migrating birds have an internal compass that allows them to home their way back to their nesting place each spring,” he writes. “For birds, home is both verb and noun—both journey and destination.” (from cover flap)

“In this beautifully written memoir, travel is more than an attempt to collect passport stamps and check off bucket lists. It’s a chance to see rather than look.” -Booklist
