Best selling author Julia Gregson explores the unique environment of the Wye Valley and the remarkable number of talented women who call it home. In a picture-led celebration of diversity and achievement, Crossing Borders features a combination of 'day in the life...' reportage and biographical commentary, all brought to life through the photography of Alex Pownall. With 21 women featured, many of whom have received world-wide recognition in their field, this is a truly exceptional record of talent and achievement.
