Produktbeschreibung
Although automobile heritage has been the subject of some limited research, Automobile Heritage and Tourism is unique in examining its scope and role within tourism. The book looks at a vast array of topics, from the experience of using and collecting old cars, related destination development, automobile heritage from traditional elements such as museums through to events such as vintage automobile racing, and promotion and social change to provide a thorough review of the impacts of automobile heritage on tourism. A number of theories provide a framework and are analysed throughout including those related to the collection, display, exhibition and use of historic automobiles. The title takes a global and interdisciplinary view of the subject with contributions from various geographical areas by both known and emerging scholars in this area. This book adds to the industrial heritage tourism literature and will appeal to a diverse audience, and in particular to those in the field of cultural heritage and industrial heritage tourism and practitioners involved with the planning, restoration, exhibition, and management of automobile heritage attractions and events.
