About the Book

Travel is the movement of people between two geographical locations. Travel can be done by foot, bicycle, automobile, train, boat, bus, airplane, or other means, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip. Over the span of history, travel has becomer safer, cheaper and more common among the world's population. In the Middle Ages pilgrimages were a major reason for civilian travel in both the Christian and Muslim worlds. It became fashionable during the late 16th century for young European aristocrats and wealthy upper class men to undertake a Grand Tour of major European cities as part of their education. It included historic cities such as London, Paris, Venice, Florence and Rome. During the 19th century innovations led to rail networks and steamship routes that stimulated tourism.
