Description

Travel by European and 'native' monarchs and other royals between Europe, Asia and Africa developed as a new form of personal and international politics in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The pageantry and politics of royal tours during the age of empire provides great insight into modern monarchy, colonialism and transnational cultural encounters. -- .
