When I was fourteen, I adored travel books by a Brit named HVMorton. He was a very popular travel writer of the 20s and 30s who had a knack of seeing a living past around him everywhere he went - and he could bring that life to the reader. I read his In Search of England, In search of Scotland, etc. I suspect it was the first step in me deciding to become an historian.
