Klappentext

Travel writing goes back thousands of years and is found in many cultures. Tim Youngs examines its various forms, including diaries, letters, adventure narratives, and blogs, and outlines their uses. He shows how in describing places and their journeys to them, travel writers also reveal something of their own values and preoccupations.
