Footsteps

1987

Holmes retraces the journeys of English Romantic writers through France and Italy, following their footsteps through Paris, the Cévennes mountains, and other locations to explore how travel shaped their lives and work. The book combines travel writing with literary biography as the author physically follows the routes taken by these writers to understand their experiences.
