It has everything I love in a book, adventure, suspense, some mysticism, and a WONDERFUL love story. My local library couldn&#8217;t find the recorded book in the system so they actually bought two copies, (just for me). It is a lovely recording and I&#8217;ve listened to it over and over. Roslyn Alexander&#8217;s voice is so relaxing I always listen to it before going to sleep at night. I wish Incident at Badamaya was recorded by her as well. Considering Caravan, I am amazed at the research she went through to write it. I think I will go back and re-read the Polifax mysteries. However, I believe her stand-alone novels are her best. Thales Folly is wonderful, as well as Uncertain Voyage. I&#8217;m a fan. Joan Wysong<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Victoria<br \/>\n04\/20\/2017<br \/>\n<em>I am a devoted reader of all books Dorothy Gilman. Started with a book of one of Mrs. Pollifax and had to have every single one. Of course, it helped immensely that I too was born and raised in New Brunswick, N.J. Anyway, today bought a lovely hardcover with dust jacket of Caravan. I always buy extras when I find one of her books. Inside, to my delight, I see on the top of the front page&#8230;&#8217;with best wishes, (next line) Dorothy Gilman&#8217; I can only hope this is her signature but where could I find a copy of one to make a comparison. It seems to be definitively done.
