Some people can't sit still. Among the Footloose adventurers in Penguin's tantalizing Great Journeys series: Anton Chekhov, scoping out godforsaken prison camps in A Journey to the End of the Russian Empire, and the audacious Isabella Bird (1831-1904), startling mountain men by not riding sidesaddle, in Adventures in the Rocky Mountains.
