Lucy Harriet Thomson Reflections

In 1924, Lucy Thomson and her husband William travelled by ship from Australia to tour Great Britain and the Continent.

Part of Lucy's diary has survived from that year, and this diary - along with her broader recollections of her trip - has been transcribed in this book. Her entries move back and forward in time across the pages. It appears that much of the diary was written during the return journey, likely drawn from earlier notes and memories rather than recorded daily.

Let her words take you there - across oceans and decades - to experience the journey through her eyes.
