1823 Diary of Tour in EGYPT South INDIA Palestine MAPS Voyages Digby Mackworth

Digby Mackworth’s “Diary of a Tour” was the English military officer’s travelogue of his voyages in India, Egypt, and Palestine. This journal offers a first hand, yet accurate account of Egypt, Southern India and the Middle East as it was during the early part of the 19^th-century. Mackworth includes impressive illustrations of the things he encountered – bridges, desert homes, and landscapes. Though, without question, the most desirable aspect of this work is the highly coveted folding maps of Southern India and Egypt near the Red Sea.
