In 1811, Maria Nugent accompanied her husband, General George Nugent, on his posting as commander-in-chief in India. After a dizzying six months at the head of Calcutta society, she embarked on a 14-month tour of northern India, traveling to the very edge of the imperial frontier. Lady Nugent's journal offers windows into the rarely glimpsed domestic worlds of both colonial households in British India and the zenanas of north India's most powerful Indianrulers.
