Author, traveller and social campaigner is an understatement.
She went with her husband Archiabld John Little (1838-1908) to China in 1887 and together as a couple made a huge contribution to the opening up of inland trade and improving the lives of Chinese women by campaigning against foot-binding. From 1895 she encouraged European women in China to join the anti-footbinding movement. She didn’t hold back on the truly shocking effects of foot-binding, showing x-rays of women with bound feet in her speeches. She even had the support of a Chinese Viceroy, Li Hung-chang, and perhaps most importantly, the Dowager Empress, Cixi.
她與丈夫阿奇博爾德·約翰·利特爾(1838-1908年)於1887年前往中國,作為夫婦二人為開拓內陸貿易以及通過反對纏足運動來改善中國婦女生活做出了巨大貢獻。從1895年起,她鼓勵在華歐洲婦女加入反纏足運動。她毫不避諱地揭示纏足的真正可怕影響,在演講中展示了婦女纏足後的X光片。她甚至得到了中國一位總督李鴻章的支持,而更重要的是,還得到了慈禧太后的支持。

Celebrating the Lee Kai Hung Chinese Culture Gallery opening
"Mrs Archibald Little informs us that she intends visiting Hongkong and Canton shortly in the interests of the anti-footbinding society of which she is the founder. She will doubtless lecture in Hongkong on the subject."
「利特爾夫人告知我們,她計劃不久後前往香港和廣州,以推動她所創立的反纏足協會的利益。她無疑將在香港就此主題發表演講。」
