A glorious selection of photos, hand-tinted lantern slides and tales from Burton Holmes's extraordinary multi-volume Travelogues, originally published in 1901. From the grand boulevards of Paris to China's Great Wall, from the construction of the Panama canal to the 1906 eruption of Mount Vesuvius, Holmes was there, camera and pen at the ready. He made a career of sharing his stories, colorful photographs, and films with audiences across America, billing himself as "the World's Greatest Traveler."  (TVL116, $59.99)
