The Library After Dark

Journey

A woman’s journey round the world

by Ida Pfeiffer

Ida Pfeiffer travelled from Vienna through Brazil, Chile, Tahiti, China, India, Persia and Asia Minor, often with little money and no companion. Her account gives this shelf a traveller’s own view of a journey that crosses half the globe. It is an engrossing counterpoint to the expedition accounts written by men.
