One summer many years ago, when finances and obligations kept me & my family tethered to the house (except for a couple of road trips up I-5), I decided to read my way around the world. I wish I'd kept a comprehensive list of every book; this list is only a sampling.
I chose each novel as much for the author's use of language and colorful characterizations as for setting. Each is rich in period detail as well. You'll especially enjoy M. M. Kaye's murder mysteries if you wish you could go back in time in order to travel in retro style, during eras when flight passengers were served dinner on chinaware and travelers dressed up for the train trip.
Bon Voyage!
