Tourists

"Tourists" by Lucy Lethbridge explores two centuries of British travel, capturing the voices and experiences of travelers from the Napoleonic Wars era to modern holidays. The book examines how tourism shaped and reflected societal changes, from the development of guidebooks and souvenirs to the impact on cultures and class structures. Through vivid storytelling, it reveals how holidays have longed for distant horizons while also deepening our understanding of modernity and home.
