Beskrivning
While the gender and age of the girl may seem to remove her from any significant contribution to empire, this book provides both a new perspective on familiar girls' literature, and the first detailed examination of lesser-known fiction relating the emergence of fictional girl adventurers, castaways and 'ripping' schoolgirls to the British Empire.

'...Smith's book is a well-written study that brings together a range of texts not previously discussed comprehensively in the context of the British Empire. A helpful index keeps the wealth of material accessible.' -Jochen Petzold, Regensburg, ZAA
