Lamb (English literature, U. of Toronto) specializes in the connections between literature and travel prior to the advent of photography, steamboats and rail transportation, and she has written this volume to explore the influence of tourism on 18th century English literature. Intended for students and scholars of literary history, this book explains how culture, gender, sex and tourism were intertwined in England before 1840, with the author emphasizing the effects of these interactions on domestic life. Literary works from authors and poets such as Samuel Richardson, Laurence Sterne, William Wordsworth and Sarah Scott are discussed. Distributed by Associated University Presses.
