William Sansom is one who not only travels hopefully, but also arrives at something strange, rare, funny, poignant or bizarre, always rewarding. These travel sketches take us from Capri to St. Tropez, from Vienna to Vicenza, from the Edwardian ambience of Baden Baden to a Norwegian fjord, from the siesta-hour in Spain to the scurry and inexhaustible oddities of London. His last chapter tells us about Mhailand - an undiscovered country from whose bourne no traveller, if he could find it, would wish to return. C3C. Very Good/Good. Signed by Author.
