Explores representations of late seventeenth- to mid-nineteenth-century transatlantic women travellers. The volume highlights the resilience of women who ventured voluntarily and by force across the Atlantic - some seeking mobility, adventure, knowledge, wealth, and freedom, and others surviving subjugation, capture, and enslavement.
