Harriet Martineau, Florence Nightingale and Amelia Edwards' writings about their travels to Egypt had long been ignored. In this book, the author provides short biographies of these three amazing women; she also analyzes the letters sent to family members and their publications. A serious book, offering only 12 black and white photographs, this is recommended material for those interested in learning more about these remarkable women.

This book is nothing but a horrid little compilation of other books, and Branwell's name apparently was used only to sucker people who were curious about Branwell into buying the book....This book is NOTHING. No Branwell insights. It doesn't even FOCUS on him. Rip-off, don't fall for it. Bad book.
