About this book
Sixteenth and seventeenth-century England produced a number of rare advice books on how a gentleman should travel abroad, and Clare Howard's study surveys them. She shows how Elizabethan and Jacobean gentlemen finished their education by going overseas, drawing on manuscripts in the British Museum, early printed instructions including German ones, and the life and letters of Sir Henry Wotton.
Howard wrote the essay at Oxford between 1908 and 1910, and signed the preface from Barnard College, New York, in October 1913.
