Description: Sandra Gunning draws on nineteenth-century African diasporic travel writing to explore the conditions and possibilities of race, gender, sex, and class that early black Atlantic travel enabled.
Review Quotes: "Moving Home takes a nuanced, intersectional approach to travel writers' construction of gendered identities. . . . Throughout her book, Gunning eschews generalization and accentuates instead the specific politics surrounding each text she discusses."--Elizabeth A. Bohls "Review 19"
