Contributing to the growing literature of travel and its representations, the book argues that from its beginnings, photography has played a constitutive role in the formation of travel--comparable in importance to its part in the portrayal of social identity. It shows how, in turn, travel has shaped the use and language of all types of photographic production."--Publisher description UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/hol058/99042165.html ER -
