Description

The decline in agricultural and other forms of rural employment in developed countries has created a need for a diversified range of rural businesses. Tourism and recreation are recognized as prime contributors to this process. This book reviews both the theory and practice of rural tourism and recreation. Including numerous case studies and contributions from both academics and practitioners, it illustrates how small enterprises can create and adapt products and markets.
