Ruskin exerted a formative influence on the definition and development of cultural tourism which was probably as significant as that for example of his contemporary Thomas Cook. The book assesses Ruskin's overall influence on the development of national and international tourism in the context of pre - existing expectations about tourism flows and cultural capital and alongside parallel and intersecting trends of the time; examines Ruskin's contribution to the tourist agenda at all social levels; and discusses Ruskin's significance for current debates in tourism studies especially questions of the place of the canon of traditional European cultural tourism in a post - modern tourist setting and the various incarnations of heritage tourism .\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Constructing Cultural Tourism John Ruskin And The Tourist Gaze\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Walton John K.\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Channel View Publications Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781845411541\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 224 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 11\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Tourism and Cultural Change\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Tourism Industry","brand":"Walton John K.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49625790578993,"sku":"IN-G-9781845411541","price":39.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781845411541.jpg?v=1724948278","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781845411541-constructing-cultural-tourism-john-ruskin-and-the-tourist-gaze","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
