episode 13 - Bachelor Girl in Burma by Geraldine Edith Mitton cover

Description

Dive into the captivating travelogue of Miss Mitton, an unconventional English author of her era. As an unmarried woman in her early 30s, she ventured into the less-explored realms of Burma and Ceylon in the early 1900s. Her vividly picturesque language and her typical Edwardian era views towards the locals offer an intriguing insight into that epoch. The enchanting aura of Burma, a hidden gem for wanderers then and now, comes alive in her records. A must-listen for those intrigued by Edwardian travel, societal attitudes, and womens issues during the Edwardian colonial period. (Summary by Mary Ann Hadley)
