Confronting the contemporary poststructuralist debate from the perspective of cultural historiography, this work presents an historical study of race and ethnicity. Specifically, it provides an account, both theoretical and applied, of the combination of sexual, racial and ethnic factors underpinning and shaping the experiences of English men and women in various colonies in the 19th century. Although accessible for the student, the work is intended to be of use to theorists and historians as well.
