| Summary | "Greater Britain: A Record of Travel in English-Speaking Countries During 1866-7" by Charles Wentworth Dilke is a historical travelogue written in the late 19th century. The book documents the author's extensive travels in English-speaking nations, reflecting on the cultural and societal nuances of these countries as they relate to Britain. The narrative likely captures various landscapes, peoples, and the author's observations about the shared heritage and diverging developments of English-speaking populations across the globe. The opening of the book illustrates Dilke's arrival in Virginia, presenting vivid descriptions of the historical significance of the area, including references to the British colonial past and the impacts of the Civil War. Dilke engages with local citizens, exploring themes of race and labor as he encounters a post-war South where African Americans are beginning to navigate their newfound emancipation. Through his interactions and observations, the author sets the tone for a travel narrative that seeks to understand the complex legacies of colonialism and the fabric of society in these diverse English-speaking lands.
