Description
The Queen’s Daughters in India provides a comprehensive historical examination of British women’s roles and experiences during the colonial era in India. Written by Elizabeth W. Andrew and Katharine C. Bushnell with contributions from Josephine E. Butler and Henry J. Wilson, this work documents the lives of women who ventured to India as missionaries, wives of colonial officials, and social reformers.
The book explores the complex relationships between British women and Indian society, including their involvement in missionary work, educational initiatives, and social reform movements. It addresses the cultural challenges, personal experiences, and the impact these women had on both British colonial society and Indian communities. Through detailed narratives and historical analysis, the authors provide insight into the often-overlooked perspectives of women in colonial India.
This hardcover edition, published by Gyan Publishing House, remains an important resource for understanding women’s history, colonial studies, and the intersection of gender, culture, and imperialism during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
