Description :
Missionary Travels became one of the best known works of travel writing in the English language, and it was widely read, reproduced and translated. In order to appreciate the significance and impact of Missionary Travels within Britain and beyond, the paper sets the work in the context of contemporary cultures of exploration and empire. It also seeks to unravel the story of the making of the book and the different hands and voices at work in its composition, including those of illustrators, sponsors and publishers.
