Tales from plucky Victorian women who set off for deepest Africa armed only with a starched blouse and some hairpins fascinated readers in the nineteenth century. Unchaperoned in unexplored territory, their adventures shocked their contemporaries.
Now a new anthology of women's travel writing aims to broaden our understanding of the female travel experience.
Sheila talks to Josie Dew, a renowned cyclist and author of The Sun in My Eyes and to Dr Shirley Foster, senior lecturer at the University of Sheffield and co-editor of An Anthology of Women Travel Writing. Josie Dew, Sun in My Eyes, Time Warner Paperbacks; ISBN: 0751530182, 拢7.99 Shirley Foster (ed.), Sara Mills (ed.), Anthology of Women's Travel Writing, Manchester University Press; ISBN: 0719050189
