Intrepid travellers from past and present air their views on the joys and horrors of travel. Their tiny figures dot the pages of this enchanting book, in which exquisitely witty images and apt quotations will inspire readers to write down their own thoughts. The words and pictures are taken from Laura Stoddart's 'Off the Beaten Track: A Traveller's Anthology'.
