Wherever you go in the world, the landscapes, seascapes, and cityscapes you encounter all have stories to tell. Those stories might be about how that place was formed, how its wildlife has evolved, how we understand the processes that shaped it, or how it has inspired artists, writers, and musicians. No matter what the story is, knowing how to read it and understand it makes any trip more worthwhile, whether it's to the park down the street or a city on the other side of the globe. The purpose of Voyages is to help tell these stories, to enrich travel to the places that tell them, and build understanding of the world around us.

In this final installment of our journey through Victorian architecture, we travel the globe in the wake of the Royal Navy to see how the technologies that allowed the British Empire to grow also made Victorian architecture a global style. Then, we travel to the Wild West of the US to see how this backwards-looking school of design led to the radical new architecture of Modernism.
