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 19th-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.
