Publisher's Synopsis

Beatrice Ethel Grimshaw (3 February 1870 - 30 June 1953) was an Irish writer and traveller. Beginning in 1903, she worked as a travel writer for the Daily Graphic and The Times. She had long harboured a desire to travel the world, especially the largely unexplored Pacific Ocean, and in 1903 she was engaged by the Daily Graphic to report on the Pacific. She was commissioned to write travelogues for shipping companies to promote the Cook Islands, Fiji, Niue, Samoa, and Tonga. She intended to stay a few months but remained for twenty-seven years. This adventure and romance novel "Lady In the Strange South Seas" is typical of Grimshaw's writing featuring the unique life and landscape of the early South Pacific Islands.
