The Tao of Travel

A compendium of travel writing from a master traveller Paul Theroux celebrates fifty years of wandering the globe by collecting the best writing on travel from the books that shaped him, as a reader and a traveller. Part philosophical guide, part miscellany, part reminiscence, The Tao of Travel enumerates The Contents of Some Travellers Bags and exposes Writers Who Wrote About Places They Never Visited; tracks extreme journeys in Travel As An Ordeal and highlights some of Travellers Favourite Places.
