It was the Belle Epoque, a time before air travel or radio, at the brink of a revolution in photography & filmmaking, when Burton Holmes (1870-1958) began a lifelong journey to bring the world home. From the grand boulevards of Paris to China`s Great Wall, from the construction of the Panama Canal to the 1906 eruption of Mount Vesuvius, Holmes delighted in finding ”the beautiful way around the world” & made a career of sharing his stories, colorful photographs, & films with audiences across America. He coined the term ”travelogue” in 1904 to advertise his unique performance & thrilled audiences with two-hour sets of stories timed to projections of multihued, h&-painted glass-lantern slides & some of the first ”moving pictures.” Paris, Peking, Delhi, Dubrovnik, Moscow, Manila, Jakarta, Jerusalem: Burton Holmes was there. He visited every continent & nearly every country on the planet, shooting over 30, 000 photographs & nearly 500, 000 feet of film. This book represents the best of the Holmes archive, brimming with brilliant color photographs. A rare window onto the world of 100 years ago, it is also the ultimate inspiration to strike out on a travel adventure of your own. ...
