9780195052497 / Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands (The ^ASchomburg Library of Nineteenth-Century Black Women Writers) Hardcover – April 14, 1988

by  Oxford University Press; Reprint edition (April 14, 1988)  (Author)

A far cry from the nineteenth-century slave narrative tradition, this book, written in 1857, is a special kind of success story. With delightful urbanity and wit, Mary Seacole, a free-born Jamaican Creole, recounts her childhood as a daughter of a Scottish army officer and a free black boarding-house keeper, her years as a storekeeper in a Central American frontier town, and her role as a battlefield ‘doctress’ to British troops in the Crimean War. She emerges as an independent and respected maternal figure, the acme of female achievement in Victorian culture, and a symbol of ‘home’ to British soldiers alienated by war.
