Lord Byron completed his Grand Tour of the Mediterranean between 1809 and 1811, leaving England at the age of twenty-one as an undiscovered soul and returning as Byron, with all that implies: the brand, the baggage and the brio. Lord Strathcarrons re-Tour follows in Byrons footsteps, revisiting the places the poet visited two hundred years ago and comparing what he found then to what one finds there now. At each point the re-Tour meets todays equivalents to the kings, consuls, governors, chieftains and gangsters that the Grand Tour met before it. Witty and perceptive, the re-Tour reveals much about Lord Byron and much too about how the world has changed in two centuries.

Recenzijas

'Strathcarron writes with wit and wry observation. He has an eye for detail, a photographic memory and a gift for seeing what lies below the surface. It is inspirational and original, a fascinating book for travel buffs, biographers and poets.' --John Jenkins, writersservices.com 'Byron's love of Greece, his dramatic role in its struggle for independence, and his understanding of how ancient and contemporary might meet in its lands and on its seas, have made him part of Greek history. It is good to have a book showing us the living context - how this process happened, how we came to share one of our major poets with the Greeks.' --Ruth Padel A spirited and sympathetic re-tracing, by land and sea, of the Mediterranean adventures of the 'mad, bad and dangerous-to-know' poet.' --Jason Elliot
