*A Voyage of Consolation* is a sequel of sorts to Duncan's *An American Girl in London*. In the prior book, time spent in England and the acquisition of English mannerisms leads to the termination of her narrator's engagement with her fiancée, who disapproves of the changes. When she complains to her father that she is heartbroken, he decides on a voyage of consolation, taking himself, his wife, and their daughter to Europe for a tour through Italy and France. The voyage provides opportunity for Duncan's witty observations of people and places, and by the end, romance has again entered her narrator's life.
