- catalog abstract "Organizing his material chronologically, Meanor presents a clear and gracefully composed reading of each volume, incorporating critical commentary and biographical data where these illuminate the text. Underscored throughout is Meanor's premise that the lifework of Bruce Chatwin "documents the brutal consequences that modern industrialized and technological forces imposed on so-called primitive people and simultaneously celebrates the idiosyncratic diversity of the remarkable worlds he explored." An eminently useful companion to courses in travel writing and English literature, Bruce Chatwin is certain to be well received by students, scholars, librarians, and general readers. Enhancing the text are a preface, acknowledgments, chronology, notes and references, selected bibliography, and index.".
