About This Book

"Solidary Travelers brings new insight into the study of women's roles in natural history and travel writing. It examines the life and works of four women over approximately a century: Mary Wollstonecraft, Harriet Martineau, Isabella Bird Bishop, and Mary Kingsley, and considers their work in terms of professional ambition in the field of natural history, making a case in the process for the inclusion of such popular texts in the history of science."--BOOK JACKET.
