British Female Travel Writers

Ms. Alison Day has presented a fresh look into Victorian life in the British colony of India with her emphasis on their female travel writers. Her thesis provides a glimpse into their lives, surroundings and longings during a time when women were not considered to be credible characters to describe life - other than in the typical British household. Alison has done a real good job in presenting the life and times before 1857 in the British colony of India.
