Description:

If the idea of two weeks spent shooting rapids, trekking in Nepal, or even fighting the crowds at Disney World sounds more like work than vacation, consider instead a holiday for the soul. Across the United States, monasteries, abbeys, and retreats--both religious and nonsectarian--offer travelers respite from the world and a chance to refresh the body and renew the spirit. In Sanctuaries: The West Coast and Southwest, Marcia and Jack Kelly offer a choice of more than 200 places where refuge, peace, and tranquility are the order of the day. Each entry includes historical background on the establishment, plus a description of the physical surroundings, accommodations, and spiritual activities. This particular volume covers sanctuaries in Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington.
