Empire and Mobility in the Long Nineteenth Century
«
'Written in a highly accessible style, Lambert and Merriman finely point out the interconnections between research on mobilities and imperial histories. Through such positioning, the book argues that rigorous historical research can advance mobilities scholarship and shows that there is already much that mobility scholars may learn from histories of the empire. [...] I do hope that the volume finds its way to the hands of many students of history and geography as well as those of scholars of mobility more generally.'
