"Join BBC news presenter Martine Croxall talking with pioneering travel writer and publisher Hilary Bradt about her unorthodox travels, love of adventure and passion for hitchhiking. Arrested in Uganda in the aftermath of the Entebbe Raid, jailed for discussing capitalism in communist Ethiopia and lost in the Madagascan jungle for three days - Hilary shares the adventures and inspirations that have shaped her life. Her reflections will include her unconventional beginning in publishing - hitchhiking to her first Frankfurt book fair and sleeping on trains and buses to sell books across Europe and the US.
