Roy considers the connections Jameson makes between feminism and anti-racism in Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in Canada (1838), Hubbard''s insights in A Woman''s Way Through Unknown Labrador (1908) into her relationship with First Nations men who had both more and less power than she, and Laurence''s awareness of colonial and patriarchical oppression in her African memoir The Prophet''s Camel Bell (1963).
