A much-needed contribution to the expanding interest in the history of travel and travel writing, Voyages and Visions is the first attempt to sketch a cultural history of travel from the sixteenth century to the present day. The essays address the theme of travel as a historical, literary and imaginative process, focusing on significant episodes and encounters in world history. The contributors to this collection include historians of art and of science, anthropologists, literary critics and mainstream cultural historians. Their essays encompass a challenging range of subjects, including the explorations of South America, India and Mexico; mountaineering in the Himalayas; space travel; science fiction; and American post-war travel fiction. Voyages and Visions is truly interdisciplinary, and essential reading for anyone interested in travel writing. With essays by Kasia Boddy, Michael Bravo, Peter Burke, Melissa Calaresu, Jesus Maria Carillo Castillo, Peter Hansen, Edward James, Nigel Leask, Joan-Pau Rubies and Wes Williams.

"For thousands of years before Columbus,there were sailing ships and explorers among us.On every continent, men of one bloodshared tales of creation and a worldwide flood.Of an ark that preserved some of every kind,and three sons whose families new lands did find.They rebelled, so God confused their speech;they crossed land bridges as continents breached..." Sweeping in scope yet simple in expression, this historical poem will captivate the imagination with accompanying art from the 16th-19th centuries, supporting scriptures, and "did you know" background information. Is it possible for a short children's book to transport you to millenniums past and forever change the way you view world history? See for yourself!
