About this title

Synopsis

A Journal From The Year 1811 Till The Year 1815, Including A Voyage To And Residence In India by Maria Nugent. This two-volume travelogue records Lady Nugent's voyage with her husband, Sir George Nugent, from England to Madeira and the Cape, Calcutta, Moorshedabad, Lucknow, Delhi, Agra, and beyond. It blends intimate moments—such as the birth of her son aboard ship, letters from home, and reflections on motherhood and faith—with detailed observations of Hindu and Muslim customs, imperial courts, and everyday life across early 19th-century India. The diary also documents river journeys on the Ganges, architectural marvels like the Taj Mahal, and the social dynamics of British officials, soldiers, and Indian elites, offering a rare perspective on empire, travel, and cross-cultural encounters.
