"Real ladies do not travel" my a$$! These women did, during a time when women were told that too much education would make their brains grow and push their hair out of their skulls (no lie, that was taught in the Victorian era). LOL

4 great stories of women who prevailed against what was expected of them, their age and their station in life to catalog the wonders of the world
