Marco Polo Didn't Go There
Rolf Potts
A collection of travel writing, along with some notes about how the stories were written. Potts spends quite a bit of time musing about the difference between "travelers" and "tourists", and if there is one. Potts is a clever writer, and this stories have lots of great turns of phrase.
