Although the 18th century is traditionally seen as the age of the Grand Tour, it was in fact the continental travel of Jacobean noblemen which really constituted the beginning of the Tour as an institutionalized phenomenon. This book examines the political and cultural significance of the encounters that resulted, focusing in particular on two of England’s greatest, and newly united, families: the Cecils and the Howards.
