selections from travelers both familiar and unexpected:
"Vladimir Nabokov Eudora Welty
Evelyn Waugh James Baldwin
Charles Dickens Pico Iyer
Henry David Thoreau Anton Chekhov

Freya Stark Ernest Hemingway
Graham Greene and many others"
"Dazzling . . . Like someone panning for gold, Theroux reread
hundreds of travel classics and modern works, shaking out the
nuggets." -- "San Francisco Chronicle"
