This diary of a young woman travelling by stage-coach in 1790 takes the reader on a journey through time and space. Her strange adventures provide a stimulus for exploring the nature of travel, social and linguistic development and the crimes, punishments and injustices of that time. The book includes original source material and the ideas are appropriate for English, Drama and Humanities work. Andy Kempe is the author of "Drama Sampler: Preparations and Presentations for GCSE Drama" and "The GCSE Drama Coursebook".
