Invaluable for the student of travel and literature of the nineteenth century.

'absorbing, well-researched and informative' - The Yorkshire Post



'pioneering work...an exceptionally accessible and entertaining work of scholarship' - Samantha Matthews, TLS



'Watson has produced a book likely to interest readers in both the literary and tourist domains, and a study worth putting on the shelves of academic and public libraries.' - Stuart Hannabuss, Library Review



'She [Watson] writes from an agreeably personal standpoint, having undertaken a good deal of such touring on her own account.' - Michael Irwin, The Thomas Hardy Journal



'Combining exemplary historical scholarship with considerable critical and theoretical sophistication, she [Watson] offers sensitive readings on the one hand of the texts and literary careers that have brought about significant forms of literary tourism, and on the other, of the literary-touristic experience itself...this is an impressive study that will prove useful not just to specialists in tourism and travel writing, but to all scholars of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century literature and culture.' Carl Thompson, British Association for Romantic Studies Bulletin& Review
