This eight-volume set in two parts gives voice to some intrepid women travellers touring post-Napoleonic France. The volumes are facsimile editions and are introduced and edited by experts in their field. Part II deals with two longer works: Frances Trollope provides a comparison of French and English customs and character traits, whilst managing to inject more serious observations on the state of French society post-revolution; and Lady Morgan looks at France's parallels with Ireland in a travelogue which also functions as a study of socio-political change.
