Scope and Contents

From the Series:

Jessy Harden's journal, essentially a series of family newsletters, was sent in instalments to her sister, Agnes Ranken, in India. Many of her husband's drawings were used to illustrate it. Journals and sketches alike survived because Agnes Ranken preserved them and eventually brought them back to Great Britain.
