# Rambles in Germany and Italy in 1840, 1842, and 1843, vol. 1 of 2

By Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley.

"Rambles in Germany and Italy in 1840, 1842, and 1843, vol. 1 of 2" by Mary Shelley is a travel narrative published in 1844. This work chronicles Shelley's journeys through Europe with her son and his university friends, returning to Italy where she had lived with her late husband and lost two children. More than a typical travelogue, Shelley frames her account as a political commentary, advocating for Italian independence and challenging conventions against women writing about politics. The book emerged from her involvement with Italian revolutionary exiles in Paris. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
