Paul Theroux celebrates fifty years of wandering the globe by collecting the best writing on travel from the books that shaped him, as a reader and a traveler. Part philosophical guide, part miscellany, part reminiscence, The Tao of Travel enumerates “The Contents of Some Travelers’ Bags” and exposes “Writers Who Wrote about Places They Never Visited”; tracks extreme journeys in “Travel as an Ordeal” and highlights some of “Travelers’ Favorite Places.” Excerpts from the best of Theroux’s own work are interspersed with selections from travelers both familiar and unexpected:

Vladimir Nabokov J.R.R. Tolkien

Samuel Johnson Eudora Welty

Evelyn WaughIsak Dinesen

Charles Dickens James Baldwin

Henry David Thoreau Pico Iyer

Mark Twain Anton Chekhov

Bruce Chatwin John McPhee

Freya Stark Peter Matthiessen

Graham Greene Ernest Hemingway

The Tao of Travel is a unique tribute to the pleasures and pains of travel in its golden age.

PAUL THEROUX is the author of many highly acclaimedbooks. His novelsincludeA Dead Handand The Mosquito Coast, and his renowned travel books include Ghost Train to the Eastern StarandDark Star Safari. He lives in Hawaii and on Cape Cod.

保罗·梭鲁是美国著名的旅行文学作家。1970年与家人移居英格兰，随后迁往伦敦，在英国居住了17年。这期间，写了几部评价很高的小说及多篇广受欢迎的旅游文章。目前已返回美国定居，但仍到处旅行。著作甚丰，包括《映像宫殿》获得1978年英国惠特布雷德文学奖；《蚊子海岸》被选为1984年年度小说，并改遍成电影。
