FROM THE PUBLISHER - This book is an anthology of extracts from the huge diversity of travel literature, written mainly in the English language. Included are excerpts from the writings of authors from Homer to Paul Theroux, Chaucer, Mary Kingsley, Mark Twain, Henry James, among others. The writers have been chosen by the editor, himself a lifelong traveller, who himself proves to be the most interesting and amusing of companions. Lord Norwich links the pieces and sets the scene. There are nearly 400 extracts gripped not in time by country, but according to aspects or themes of travel. They represent the experiences of leaving and homecoming, on encounters and perils, of seasons and terrains -- in short, all the many meanings of being abroad. inventory #8848 ISBN: 0394558553.
