Comparing Three Travel Narratives Stating your argument in the first sentence, what are the common themes between the three travel narratives?
1. “A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison” By James E. Seaver, edited by June Namias
2. Alexander Hamilton’s Narrative in “Colonial American Travel Narratives”
3. “The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano” Written by himself and edited by Robert J. Allison
Please read all three narratives and compare a common theme using evidence. Mary Jane Maxwell, in her introduction to the February 2013 World History Connected Forum on “Travel Writers and Travel Narratives in World History,” drew attention to the ancient age of this tradition1 and to the many variations of travel narrative accounts now available.
