I've read several of HV Morton's travel books which were penned between the 1920's and 1950's. This man is a marvel of historical interpretation and I would highly recommend these volumes to anyone traveling to any particular place he has described.
Even though the books may seem out of date, he has laced them with so much timeless history that it doesn't matter that he traveled half a century ago. Plus, many of the things he mentions remain. Best of all, he puts them in context.
In particular, A Stranger in Spain is most excellent.
