Renowned poet Richard Tillinghast's wanderlust and restless spirit are nearly as well-known as his verses. This book of essays captures that penchant to wander, yet Journeys into the Mind of the World is not merely a compilation of travel stories, it is a book of places. It explores the chosen locations in a deeper way than would be typical of travel literature, attempting to enter not just the world, but "the mind of the world2 - the roots and history of places, their political and cultural history, spiritual, artistic, architectural, and ethnic dimensions.
