Physician Robert Richardson (1779–1847) accompanied the household of the earl of Belmore on a tour of the eastern Mediterranean in his yacht, and dedicated this two-volume work to his patron in 1822. Volume 1 recounts their journey up the Nile, exploring both the antiquities of Egypt and the modern cities.
