INTRODUCTORY CHAPTER. James Thomson and the travel writers - his imitators in poems about the best Indies - motives for travel during the eighteenth century - the manifold relations between poets and travel- writers - the theory of travel in prose and verse. CHAPTER TWO. TRAVELLING IN EUROPE. A man who has not been in Italy, is always conscious of an inferiority, from his not having seen it is expected a man should see. The grand object of travelling is to see the shores of the Mediterranean. CHAPTER THREE. GREAT BRITAIN. CHAPTER FOUR. PRIMITIVE POETRY AND THE TRAVEL BOOKS.
