Focusing on the turn-of-the-century, this transnational history explores rambling and mountaineering, revealing how these activities were shaped by urban cultures. It examines the interplay between mass tourism and the evolving attitudes toward danger, time, and internationalism in outdoor pursuits. Rather than viewing these enthusiasts as rejecting modernity, the book illustrates how they engaged with modern identities to assert political claims on rural spaces and envision a more progressive society.
