Celebrating a "golden age" of travel, this new book retraces the
steps of a Grand Tour of South East Asia from the turn of the 20th
century to the present day. The Romance of the Grand Tour explores
the living heritage of 12 exotic port cities: from Rangoon
(Yangon), through the Straits Settlements of Penang, Malacca and
Singapore and the old Dutch East Indies cities of Batavia (Jakarta)
and Surabaya, via Bangkok to former Indochina at Saigon (Ho Chi
Minh City), Phnom Penh and Hanoi, through Manila to Hong Kong.
Drawing on archival images and accounts as well as present-day
photographs and illustrations, the book captures the romance and
excitement of these early Grand Tourists, while presenting
contemporary scenes and experiences for 21st-century travellers
determined to seek out the legacy of a bygone era.
