Title: The Passport: The History of Man's Most Travelled Document
Author: Martin Lloyd
Publisher: Sutton Publishing
Year: 2003
288 pages
A natural history of the passport. Some readers find it dry, whereas I found it very interesting. Illustrated with useful photographs and interweaving history and anecdote. It's a little dated since it was published before many of the post-9/11 infelicities of cross-border travel were firmly entrenched.
