In 1815 the Battle of Waterloo brought to an end the Napoleonic Wars and the European continent opened up once again to British tourists. The nineteenth century was to be an age driven by steam technology, mass-industrialisation and movement, and, in the footsteps of the Grand Tourists a hundred years earlier, the British middle-classes flocked to Europe to see the sights. In Tourists, the voices of these travellers – puzzled, shocked, delighted and amazed – are brought vividly to life.

Es sollte ein netter Familienurlaub werden. Die Schriftstellerin George Sand wollte ihrem rheumakranken Sohn den nasskalten Winter in Paris ersparen. Mit von der Partie war Komponist Frédéric Chopin, doch der "Winter auf Mallorca" war für das Liebespaar nicht so erholsam wie erwartet. In Palma de Mallorca existiert nicht ein einziges Hotel, es regnet in Strömen und einen Kamin zum Heizen gibt es nicht. Schließlich fliehen die Urlauber in die Berge zur Karthause von Valldemosa. Immerhin wird Chopin hier am mitgebrachten Klavier seine weltberühmten Präludien abschließen.

The Old Course at St. Andrews is to golfers what St. Peter's is to Catholics or the Western Wall is to Jews: hallowed ground, the course every golfer longs to play - and master. In 1983 George Peper was playing the Old Course when he hit a slice so hideous that he never found the ball.
