Travel Writing
This guide is a collection of resources available through Walsh University Library. It is designed to help students of ENG 335: Travel Writing find appropriate material for research papers and projects.
"Travelers and tourists, the distinction is simple: Tourists are those who bring their homes with them wherever they go, and apply them to whatever they see. They are closed to experiences outside of the superficial. Travelers, however, leave home at home, bringing only themselves and a desire to learn." - Gary Langer
