This book provides a new cultural history of the travel souvenir. It uncovers how eighteenth-century British women enlisted the objects they collected during their travels to realise their ambitions in the arenas of connoisseurship, science and friendship. It argues for the souvenir as a significant site of contestation over the legitimacy of the male and female experience of travel. -- .
