| Zusammenfassung: | This is a story of landed aristocrats, Victorian politicians and nouveaux riches colonial entrepreneurs. It is about the impact on the old world of money made in colonial enterprises, and the cultural exchange resulting from colonial expansion; and it details the self-managed decline of a British upper class that had held power for almost a thousand years. The Northcotes' life in England is described in the context of a sweep of British political and social history, in which Harry Northcote directly participated. The action during the couple's colonial adventures in the early 1900s takes place in two different outposts of Empire: India under the Raj, where Harry wielded autocratic power in a Bombay devastated by plague and famine, and the new democratic settler colony of Australia following the federation of separate colonies on a huge yet sparsely populated continent. The transmission of the culture of the Mother Country to the Empire's furthest reaches is studied through Alice's contribution as Governor's wife. The crucial part that women played in the maintenance of the British Empire in both locations is a key theme. This biography is of interest to scholars and general readers alike. It tells the previously untold story of two British aristocrats, and raises issues of population, immigration, social mobility, and the ethics of the British Empire, all of which are relevant to today's debates. |

politicians and nouveaux riches colonial entrepreneurs. It is about the impact on the old world of money made in colonial enterprises, and the cultural exchange resulting from colonial expansion; and it details the self-managed decline of a British upper class that had held power for almost a thousand years. The Northcotes' life in England is described in the context of a sweep of British political and social history, in which Harry Northcote directly participated. The action during the couple's colonial adventures in the early 1900s takes place in two different outposts of Empire: India under the Raj, where Harry wielded autocratic power in a Bombay devastated by plague and famine, and the new democratic settler colony of Australia following the federation of separate colonies on a huge yet sparsely populated continent. The transmission of the culture of the Mother Country to the Empire's furthest reaches is studied through Alice's contribution as Governor's wife. The crucial part that women played in the maintenance of the British Empire in both locations is a key theme. This biography is of interest to scholars and general readers alike. It tells the previously untold story of two British aristocrats, and raises issues of population, immigration, social mobility, and the ethics of the British Empire, all of which are relevant to today's debates.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield

Newcastle upon Tyne : Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2013. 1 online resource (xvi, 246 pages) : illustrations text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier data file rda Includes bibliographical references (pages 205-228) and index. Harry Northcote : the creation of an English politician -- Alice Northcote : the creation of an English lady -- Lord Northcote : power and anguish in the jewel in the crown -- The Bombay initiatives of Alice, Lady Northcote -- The third Governor General of Australia -- Governor General's wife : reinforcing federation -- The last chapter : the end of a symbiotic partnership -- An honourable conservative gentleman and a woman of substance : a final assessment -- Conclusion. This is a story of landed aristocrats, Victorian politicians and nouveaux riches colonial entrepreneurs. It is about the impact on the old world of money made in colonial enterprises, and the cultural exchange resulting from colonial expansion; and it details the self-managed decline of a British upper class that had held power for almost a thousand years. The Northcotes' life in England is described in the context of a sweep of British political and social history, in which Harry Northcote directly participated. The action during the couple's colonial adventures in the early 1900s takes place in two different outposts of Empire: India under the Raj, where Harry wielded autocratic power in a Bombay devastated by plague and famine, and the new democratic settler colony of Australia following the federation of separate colonies on a huge yet sparsely populated continent. The transmission of the culture of the Mother Country to the Empire's furthest reaches is studied through Alice's contribution as Governor's wife. The crucial part that women played in the maintenance of the British Empire in both locations is a key theme. This biography is of interest to scholars and general readers alike. It tells the previously untold story of two British aristocrats, and raises issues of population, immigration, social mobility, and the ethics of the British Empire, all of which are relevant to today's debates.
