Reviews

"""Despite the apparent novelty of virtual worlds, we forget the power of the text in the construction of imaginary 'real' worlds we can inhabit through reading and travelling. Tourism allows the exploration of fictional landscapes layered upon the real, and MacLeod provides an excellent guide of how these imagined places, peoples and pasts have shaped / continue to shape, the tourist experience."" Mike Robinson, Professor of Cultural Heritage, Nottingham Trent University, UK."
