What are some comfy books about travel? /his/-type of material would be appreciated, but more /lit/ and even /an/ stuff is also appreciated. The key is for the emphasis to be on the places themselves, and not the story of the narrator. So something like LotR wouldn't work, despite the amount of descriptions and locations.

I would also add Road to Oxiana by Robert Byron. Next, it's matter of personal preference but I would say Colin Thubron is an amazing and somewhat overlooked travel writer (Paul Theroux is probably more well known). And some of Bruce Chatwins writings are good too
