This selection reflects the diversity of travel writings in the Romantic period, revealing something of the cultural and gender difference of the travellers, as well as fuelling debates on colonialism, natural history, anthropology and slavery. Each volume represents one geographical section of the explorations, which spanned the world from North America and the Polar regions to the South Seas and Australasia.
