description: Evelyn Waugh chose the name Labels for his first travel book because he said, the places he visited were already "fully labeled" in people's minds.But even the most seasoned traveler could not fail to be inspired by Waugh's quintessentially English attitude and his eloquent and frequently outrageous wit. From Europe to the Middle East and North Africa, from Egyptian porters and Italian priests to Maltese sailors and Moroccan merchants - as he cruises around the Mediterranean his pen cuts through the local color to give a highly entertaining portrait of the Englishman abroad.
