Journal of a residence in Chile : during the year 1822, and a voyage from Chile to Brazil in 1823

In 1821, Maria Dundas Graham sailed for South America. After her husband, the ship's captain, died en route, the newly widowed Maria Graham resisted all efforts to hustle her back to England. She rented a cottage in Valparaiso and spent nine months travelling in Chile. This is her journal.
