Synopsis de l’éditeur
This volume offers a great deal of information to a broad spectrum of academics and scholarly students. Additionally, several essays explore a variety of perspectives and interpretations involving the symbolism and significance of the tourism of royalty as expressed by the consumption of the British ruling class, among other European monarchies. Overall this work offers an interesting, useful exploration of this important tourism niche. Recommended. * Choice November 2008 Vol. 46 S. Kowtko, Spokane Community College * "This is a timely, authoritative and valuable study into Royalty and Tourism. At a time when it has been calculated that the British Royal Family are responsible for bringing in over GBP9billion every year in overseas tourism spending, the relationship between tourism and Royalty requires understanding, appreciation and serious study; this book provides that." -- Bernard Donoghue, Head of Government and Public Affairs, Visit Britain (with responsibility for liaison with the Royal Households) The book is to be welcomed by tourism scholars and is likely to provoke more research into what can be a noteworthy component of tourism for many destinations. -- Joan C. Henderson, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in Tourism Recreation Research 34(1) 2009 Lire la suite...
