Excerpt from Tropical Trials: A Hand-Book for Women in the Tropics Shortly after the publication of their previous work On Duty under a Tropical Sun the authors received requests from several ladies asking them to write a book containing suggestions as to the maintenance of health, clothing, travelling, and the management of children, for the guidance of women in the tropics. In response to these requests and encouraged by the very flattering reception their previous work met with, the authors have written this book Tropical Trials, as a companion work to On Duty under a Tropical Sun.
