Nineteenth-Century Travels, Explorations and Empires, Part I (set) - Writings from the Era of Imperial Consolidation, 1835-1910 (Hardcover)

A collection of writings on travels undertaken in the Victorian era. The texts collected in these volumes show how 19th century travel literature served the interests of empire by promoting British political and economic values that translated into manufacturing goods, import-export business, jobs, and power. Many of the works collected here become the basis for numerous works of popular and serious literature by Arnold, Dickens, Thackeray, Haggard, Conrad, Kipling and many others.
