— Description[src]

Travels with Trolls was a book written by Gilderoy Lockhart, one of his collected works.

History[]

"'Let's see,' said Hermione, slamming Travels with Trolls onto the discarded pile with a rather fierce look"

A copy of this book

This book presumably concerned Lockhart's supposed experiences with trolls, though Lockhart was later revealed to be a fraud and this book actually concerned other wizards who had their memory modified by Lockhart.[4]

In 1997, Hermione considered this book as she was sorting supplies for their mission to find Voldemort's Horcruxes. It was one of the books she decided not to bring, as she considered it worthless in regards to the task the trio were about to undertake.[5]

Which Wizard gave the book a positive review, describing it as a "A spellbindingly good read," and Spella Weekly declared it to be "Absolute Warlocks!"[2] Both quotes were featured on the back of the book's dust jacket.[2]
