    Beyond the noise of modern travel lies a world that moves to a slower rhythm — a world still ruled by silence, patience, and grace. 
    In Among the Quiet Lands, acclaimed travel writer Reece Davis journeys to the planet’s most remote and unhurried places — from wind-battered monasteries in the Himalayas to forgotten villages deep within Patagonia’s valleys. Along the way, he meets those who have chosen to live close to the earth and far from the rush of progress. 
    Through poetic observation and vivid encounters, Davis reflects on what vanishes when the world moves too fast — and what we rediscover when we choose to linger, listen, and simply be. 
    A meditation on solitude, slowness, and the enduring beauty of the unspoiled, Among the Quiet Lands invites readers to pause — and to see stillness not as absence, but as presence.

    "Here inside of my second book, you will hear more stories from the gallery of my life. I am a special gentleman from Southern California living with disabilities - I was diagnosed with both cerebral palsy and scoliosis as a toddler. I am a writer who uses an augmentative alternative communication (AAC) device to speak. I wrote this sequel so that I could share more of my life with you, chronicling events from shortly after my high school graduation in 1991 all the way up to my 40th birthday in 2010. To fully appreciate my story, you'll need to read my first book "The Life of Alberto (Volume One)" so that you may follow my steps from the beginning. This second volume of my autobiography will take you through many of the humorous and memorable moments of my adult life. I am dedicating this book in loving memory of my father, Norm Baston. I hope that you find my experience as wonderful as I have. -Alberto Baston"
