Greater Britain: A Record of Travel in English-Speaking Countries During 1866-7

A traveler's account traces journeys through English-speaking and English-ruled regions in the Americas, the Pacific (including New Zealand and Polynesia), Australia, and South Asia, blending descriptive sketches with political and social observation. The narrative records landscapes, towns, and daily life while surveying indigenous peoples, colonial institutions, and economic pursuits such as mining and railroads. It considers debates over labor, protectionism, and local governance and reflects on language, law, and how English institutions are transplanted and adapted across varied climates and populations. Illustrations and maps punctuate the text and support scene-setting and cultural notes.
