Description:The book will follow the precedent set by Dennison Nash's Tourism Social Science Series anthology, The Study of Tourism. The Discovery of Tourism, will present the personal histories of some of the world's leading tourism geographers, many of whom pioneered the field. The stories will reveal the diverse personalities, passions, and peculiarities behind the authors' choice of tourism as a specialization.
