Paperback. Condition: Good. A GOOD, clean, tight copy. PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white and full-color photography with accompanying descriptive captions. From the Foreword: "Travel is one of the inevitabilities of modern life. Whether we travel from home to work, on seasonal vacations, or even between earth and outer space, we all share the traveler's imperative: to move ourselves and whatever we carry efficiently, perhaps even comfortably, from one place to another. In the larger scheme of history, pilgrims, nomads, and emigrants share aspects of their experiences of travel with explorers, wanderers, and holiday-makers. From the insightful journals of classical authors to the weekly articles in the travel section of the Sunday newspaper, the literature of travel reflects the rich diversity of man's oddyseys, as well as the fantasies and fears, the joys and travails that all travelers face in common. One chapter in the history of travel has been strangely neglected, however-the ways in which objects have been designed to carry other objects while we travel. 'Bon Voyage: Designs for Travel' leads us on a guided tour of the necessities and the luxuries that have accompanied man on his journeys around the world. We are deeply grateful to Louis Vuitton for their sponsorship of this publication and its accompanying exhibition, 'Bon Voyage:Designs for Travel,' as well as for making available to us a number of distinguished pieces of luggage from their historical collection." 128 pages.
