Passage to the World: The Emigrant Experience 1807-1940
by Brown, Kevin
|
|
From the early 19th century onwards, millions of people left their homes to cross the seas. Kevin Brown traces the story of the emigrant, from the decision to emigrate, to the journey to the port and the voyage itself, to arrival. It describes the differing conditions on board sailing ships and steamers, convict and coolie ships, and the perils of overcrowding, epidemics, fire, shipwreck and even cannibalism. | |
