TRAVEL NARRATIVE •  2003 •  HARD COVER  • 1064 PAGES

The collected travel writing of the peripatetic Waugh, including a memorable voyage to Zanzibar, a visit to the Guyanas and other excursions to out-of-the-way and often uncomfortable locales. Waugh's trademark satire and self-deprecating humor are on full display in this diverse collection spanning a 30-year career. This Everyman's Library edition includes the full texts of: Labels, A Mediterranean Journal (1930); Remote People (1931); Ninety-two Days, The Account of a Tropical Journey Through British Guiana and Part of Brazil (1934); Waugh in Abyssinia (1936); Robbery Under Law, The Mexican Object-Lesson (1939); The Holy Places (1952); and A Tourist in Africa (1960). Nicholas Shakespeare (biographer of Chatwin) provides an introduction to the man and books.  (TVL22, $25.00)
