Journey back to the turn of the 20th century with Beth Ellis personal journal An English Girls First Impressions of Burmah. This meticulously edited account takes you along for the ride as a young English woman voyages across the ocean to Rangoon and settles into a small European community nestled in the jungles of Remyo. Ellis, who embarked on this Asian adventure solo to visit her brother, isnt afraid to poke fun at her own overblown apprehensions. Her candid observations offer a raw and unfiltered look at the less glamorous life of British colonialists in Myanmar. Published in 1899, a mere thirteen years after Britains formal annexation of Myanmar following the third Anglo-Burmese war, this book is a riveting historical document.
