Book Synopsis
Explores the question, are women travel companions' accounts more generally unpretending narratives, and men's the opposite? Using extensive quotations, the author pursues questions through the relations and accounts of couples visiting or living in foreign places, from Liberia to Siberia, from Vanuatu to Chinese Turkestan, between 1664 and 1973.

Trade Review
"Graham found the idea of your book very amusing" (Barbara Greene Strachwitz to the author about her cousin, 13/1/1988)". "This is a great read. And it brings to light much interesting knowledge about a so far little explored area of travel literaure." ( Anka Ryall, University of York). "A delightful, humorous and revealing account of the pleasures and perils of travelling together." (Caroline Moorehead).
