In this study of the Grand Tour, Jeremy Black relies on archival sources to provide an exploration of the real tourist experience rather than an account that is essentially based on travel literature. While sensitive to wider cultural dimensions, the author demonstrates his interest in the experience of tourists, particularly the circumstances they encountered, and the impact of the Grand Tour on British Society.
