10 reviews for Colonial American Travel Narratives

  1. Rohit Raj

    Worth reading for the historical context, but not exactly a page-turner. Good for academic purposes though.

  2. Khushi Agarwal

    Interesting historical insights, but some narratives were a bit dry. Still a worthwhile read for understanding colonial life.

  3. Aman Verma

    A very insightful compilation. The editor did a great job. I especially enjoyed Byrd’s wit!

  4. Hanish Kumar

    A fascinating glimpse into the past! Rowlandson’s story was particularly gripping. Though, Hamilton’s diary dragged on.

  5. Vedant Kaul

    A little too academic for my taste, but I learned a lot. Good if you like primary source material.

  6. Piyush Raj

    What an eye-opening experience. I feel like I stepped back in time. Highly recommend for history lovers.

  7. Akash Kaushal

    I loved the variety of voices represented. Such a good compilation. Beckham did a great job!

  8. Yashu Priya

    A mixed bag. Knight’s journey was engaging, but overall uneven. Editing felt a bit inconsistent too.

  9. Shubham Pal

    A great selection of narratives. Some were hard to follow but the intro helped with background

  10. Madhu N

    I was expecting more adventure. It was a little slow paced, but it has some valuable information
