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."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aTeachers$zCanada$vBiography 606 $aTeachers$zSouth Africa$vBiography 606 $aSouth African War, 1899-1902$vPersonal narratives, Canadian 606 $aSouth African War, 1899-1902$xEducation and the war 606 $aSouth African War, 1899-1902$xConcentration camps$zSouth Africa 606 $aEducation$zSouth Africa$xHistory 606 $aEducation$zGreat Britain$xColonies 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTeachers 615 0$aTeachers 615 0$aSouth African War, 1899-1902 615 0$aSouth African War, 1899-1902$xEducation and the war. 615 0$aSouth African War, 1899-1902$xConcentration camps 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 0$aEducation$xColonies. 676 $a968.04/8 700 $aGraham$b E.
