Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in Canada in Three Volumes: Volume 1 - 1838 - Jameson, Mrs.

Volume 1 only; Clean, tight, unmarked; previous owner's info inside front cover; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; The best known of all 19th century Canadian travel books, This is Jameson's wonderfully entertaining account of her adventures, ranging from gleeful observations about the pretensions of high society in the colonies to a "wild expedition" she took by canoe into Indian country. Jameson's keen eye, intrepid spirit, irreverent sense of humour and staunch feminist perspective make this journal an invaluable record of life in pre-Confederation Canada.
