AbstractHistoryArchive Description
They are leaving home for many reasons - holiday-makers and honeymooners, missionaries, young people working overseas, the sick and the elderly forced from their homes by increasing dependence. Their destinations are varied; cruise ships, international hotels, colourful Pacific ports, drab institutions. Alone, they must take their personal crises to the inner city of the self, and their paths lead through self-discovery to acceptance and peace.
