First published in 1964, this book examines the Tour of Britain, focusing on British people exploring their native land in the three centuries from 1540 to 1840. By tracking these journeys over three centuries, the book presents a changing English landscape, a changing economy, and a change in people’s tastes as the interests and concerns of the tourists evolve over the timeframe covered.
