Description
This book comprises a number of essays on travel-narratives which are somewhat unknown to the general reader.
They include writing by people who travelled from the East to the West, as well as those going the usual way.
The travellers include a seventeenth-century accountant, a Persian shah, an Indian rajah and a Hawaiian king, as well as an Irish doctor, an American journalist and a Japanese poet.
The book presents these travellers in an informal manner, although there are discussions about identity, "otherness" and stereotyping as they are displayed in the narratives.
The book will appeal to students and academics, as well as the general reader.
