He has recently co-edited a volume on Heritage and Tourism for Routledge (with Robyn Bushell and Steve Watson) and his monograph, Re-Imagining Heritage Interpretation: Enchanting the Past/Future, was published by Ashgate in early 2014. Also in 2014, and published by Ashgate, came two co-edited volumes Travel and Imagination and Travel and Transformation. Another co-edited volume Travel and Representation: Past, Present, Future is in press with Berghan Books.
