Book Description
Excerpt from The Ambassadors of Commerce A mirror which will represent and reflect the strongest link in the chain of commerce, which binds in one common brotherhood this our English "nation of shopkeepers." Having had nearly a quarter of a century's experience of the "Road" and "Rail," I lay claim to have some knowledge of so useful and valuable a body of men, some information to impart, some mistaken ideas of them to rectify, and some hints to give for the benefit of both employer and representative. I make no claim to merit of a literary character. I am not writing to make money, for if the sale of these pages should have the good fortune to show a profit, "The Commercial Travellers' Schools" and "The Commercial Travellers' Benevolent Institution" will each of them have a moiety of so happy a result; should it be otherwise, I shall ask no one to share in the loss. My chief object is to place the Traveller in his true position, the one he has a right by merit to occupy in the estimation of the commercial world. In a sentence, to picture him as he is, and not as he is often represented to be. More than this they do not require, less than this they have had in the past accorded them.

Book Description
This paper presents a reading of British literary representations of commercial travelers between 1800 and 1939. Three forms of representation are used: nonfiction representations by others, travelers' self-representations, and fictional representations. We find remarkable continuity in representations of commercial travelers across this long time period, particularly in terms of a sustained tension between the image of the disreputable quot;drummerquot; and the more respectable quot;modelquot; salesman. These readings and findings are used to address two debates: one concerned with the timing of any transition to quot;modernquot; selling and salesmanship in Britain; and the second having to do with the processes whereby British society accommodated itself to modernity, commercialization, and the birth of a consumer society.
