A memoir of the author's life while he was researching and writing a religious history called Les Martyrs ou le Triomphe de la Religion Chretienne. The introduction includes the history of Athens and Sparta and an inquiry into religious traditions related to Jerusalem-specifically the authenticity of claims made by religious tourists such as visiting the actual tomb of Christ. The text of the diary is full of literary references and adventure. Unlike other travel diaries the narrative flow is more like a novel and the entries are not just lists of weather reports food pretty sights and some funny anecdotes.

FANTIN - DESODOARDS Antoine
Révolutions de l'Inde pendant le dix-huitième siècle; ou mémoires de Typoo-Zaeb, sultan du Maissour
- Chez George Bridel, à Paris 1796, in-8 (12,5x20cm), xvj, 382pp. et (4) 358pp., 2 volumes reliés. - Edition originale, rare. Reliure en pleine basane marbrée d'époque. Dos lisses ornés. Pièces de titre en maroquin rouge et de tomaisons en maroquin noir. Coiffes de tête élimées. Pièces de titres très frottées, avec manques. Quelques coins émoussés. Une mouillure en marge droite au coin sur les dix premières pages du premier tome. Histoire, géographie et murs de l'Indoustan, c'est à dire l'empire du Mogol qui s'étendait de l'Himalaya au nord, jusqu'à la presqu'île de Malabar et de Coromandel au sud, par le sultan d'une des provinces de cette nation. Fantin-Desodoards assura, au départ en compagnie de Mirabeau, la traduction et la mise en forme pour l'édition. L'ouvrage réunit une foule de renseignements précieux, il est découpé en mince chapitres très variés, notamment sur les comptoirs hollandais, portugais, et l'agissement des Anglais dans l'Indoustan. Ces mémoires auraient dû paraître en 1784, car ils furent amenés par une délégation dans le but d'éclairer les français sur la situation de cette contrée, mais la Révolution et les événements en France en retardèrent la publication.
