Early Modern Women reviews “Transatlantic Women Travelers”

Transatlantic Women Travelers, 1688-1843

edited by Misty Krueger

“The volume’s organization, meant to question (and push) boundaries between real and imagined travel, between ‘factual’ and ‘fictional’ accounts, is useful. Its most important contribution is the attention to the intersection of gender and empire as well as many of the authors’ careful attention to colonial subjectivity. Those who read, research, or teach this period will certainly find new sources to digest and productive ways of reimagining familiar material.”
