She collected her impressions of many aspects of life in that country-flora, fauna, architecture, people at work and play, fashion, society, food-and wrote about them during a time when few women engaged in solo travel, much less the pursuit of travel writing. Her collected work was still in progress when she died in a train accident in 1901, and was never published 606 $aAuthors, American$y19th century$vBiography 607 $aMexico$xDescription and travel 607 $aMexico$xSocial life and customs 615 0$aAuthors, American 676 $a917.204/81 700 $aTownsend$b Mary Ashley$f1832-1901.$01692766 701 $aWoodward$b Ralph Lee$0136010 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820941503321 996 $aHere and there in Mexico$94070083 997 $aUNINA
