For the first time, all of Lawrence's travel writings are collected in one volume and amongst popular works such as 'Twilight in Italy' are to be found comparative rarities such as 'Introduction to the Memoirs of MM' as well as his writings on Europe and South America. Included in the collection is the novel 'Kangaroo' which, while strictly speaking not a piece of travel writing, nevertheless, gives a vivid account of the persecution which sent the Lawrences on their travels and is a fascinating portrait of Australia between the wars. David Herbert Lawrence was the son of a coal-miner and a mother from a family with middle-class aspirations. He was a poet, novelist, essayist and short story writer as well as one of the most consummate travel writers of the twentieth century.
