" A useful and engaging momograph examining the points of contact between English and Palestinean women during a formative period in the history of the Near East. This book that rightly does not shy away from the political questions that shape this cultural encounter."
--H-Net Reviews

"This theoretically well-grounded study complements a growing body of research that examines English-Palestinian relations in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries just as it adds to the body of works that explore imperial/colonial and polstcolonial moments in history. Scholars in multiple fields, including women's and gender studies and comparative colonial and postcolonial studies as well as Middle Eastern history, will benefit from this well-researched and well-written book."
--Middle East and Northern Africa

"A valuable addition to the growing body of literature on representation, especially of minority/marginal entities and in cross-cultural encounters. The broad sweep of scholarship as reflected in this book is enviable."
--Muslim World Book Review
