Lady Merton Colonist is an insightful novel of character set in late-19th-century Britain. The novel's protagonist, Mary Lyster, is a recently-widowed woman of independent means who decides to use her wealth to become a colonial pioneer in South Africa. The story follows Mary's journey from her comfortable life in London to the challenges of life on the frontier, where she must confront issues of race, class and gender in the complex world of colonialism. Humphry Ward's engaging narrative and richly-drawn characters make this novel a compelling read for anyone interested in the social history of the Victorian era.
