Industry Reviews
"Tart, discriminating, brilliantly selective, its underlying melancholy tempered by a genuine inner acrid merriment (he himself would have put it better; but commas would have been as scarce), the texture of his prose and the working of his imagination promise in every second line something a good deal better than brilliance. This...book brings Greene no nearer to that something; but none will deny its brilliance."
Spectator - Peter Fleming (05/15/1936)

"No one who reads the book will question the value of Mr. Green's experiment, or emerge unshaken by the penetration, the richness, the integrity of this moving record. No mental armour will be altogether proof against the subtlety of the arrangement and delivery of this material. It is a book to break down the mature and settled, yes, even the complacent heart."
Anderson

"Mr. Greene's style is very sophisticated, graceful and indirect."
Anderson

"As a very unusual travel book, 'Journey Without Maps' is vivid and absorbing, whether or not one shares the author's preoccupations and agrees with his ideas."
Anderson
