Highly educated, hard working, and often opinionated, E. Maud Graham joined the Canadian contingent of forty teachers. Her account reveals the complexity of relations and tensions at a controversial period in Britain's history. Graham presents a lively historical travel memoir, and the editors have provided rich political and historical context to her narrative in the Introduction and generous annotations. This is a rare primary source for experts in Colonial Studies, Women's Studies, and Canadian, South African, and British Imperial History."--Provided by publisher.TeachersCanadaBiographyTeachersSouth AfricaBiographySouth African War, 1899-1902Personal narratives, CanadianSouth African War, 1899-1902Education and the warSouth African War, 1899-1902Concentration campsSouth AfricaEducationSouth AfricaHistoryEducationGreat BritainColoniesBritish History.Essays.South African War.Travel Memoir.TeachersTeachersSouth African War, 1899-1902South African War, 1899-1902Education and the war.South African War, 1899-1902Concentration campsEducationHistory.EducationColonies.968.04/8Graham E.
