Meu amigo Felix Tomillo Noguero, de Valladolid-Espanha, me alertou que existiam várias referências na Web sobre a vida e obra de F. W. Ogilvie, o autor do livro "The tourist movement". Além disso, indicou mais dois trabalhos de sua pena, quais sejam:
Ogilvie, Sir Frederick Wolff. (1948): The importance of travel as a factor in international trade. London: The British Travel Association.
e
Ogilvie, Sir Frederick Wolff. (1934): “Tourist traffic”. En Seligman, Edwin R. A.; and Johnson, Alvin (ed.). Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences. V. 14. Pp: 660-664. New York: Macmillan.
