Tourism is an important medium for public engagement with the European past. Americans encounter and engage with narratives about the European past prior to their trip when reading travel guides and during their trip when they visit historic sites, monuments, and museums. This study tried to answer these questions by focusing on gendered representations of the tourist and the European past in guide books produced in the late 1970s.
