Women's travel narratives are hugely important for assessing the position of women and their intellectual development within societal growth in late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in India. Publication in vernacular periodicals empowered both writer and reader, creating a world for, by, and of women.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sarvani Gooptu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9356876940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789356876941\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Primus Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 466\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.19d","brand":"Sarvani Gooptu","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48241735762175,"sku":"9789356876941","price":64.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2486916f-3ad3-4e84-a760-5c40d0fbcc99.jpg?v=1772655693","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wandering-women-sarvani-gooptu-9789356876941","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
