Books by Felix Driver

Explores images of the tropical world - maps, paintings, botanical drawings, photographs, diagrams, and texts - produced by European and American travelers over the past three centuries. Bringing together a group of distinguished contributors from disciplines across the arts and humanities, this volume contains eleven illustrated essays.

Power and Pauperism aims to provide a new perspective on the place of the workhouse in the history and geography of nineteenth-century society and social policy. Dr Driver demonstrates that despite appearances the workhouse system was far from monolithic, and that official policy was beset with conflict.
