Travel, Traveling Writing, and British Political Economy

The book draws on the history of economics, literary theory, and the history of science to explore how European travelers like Alexander von Humboldt and their readers, circa 1750-1850, adapted the work of British political economists, such as Adam Smith, to help organize their observations.

Travel writing goes back thousands of years and is found in many cultures. Tim Youngs examines its various forms, including diaries, letters, adventure narratives, and blogs, and outlines their uses.
