The paper aims to find colonial discourse present in Peep at Many Lands: Kashmir by Mrs. C. G. Bruce. She has written her travelogue in the colonial era which was common during the period. Many people traveled to colonial lands for diverse reasons and presented the image of colonized people in a derogatory manner to justify their presence in the colonized land as the civilizing mission. This research paper will find such notions, if any, in her travelogue.
