Salt left London in 1802 for an eastern tour with Lord Valentia visiting Indian and Ceylon and taking part in the first British mission to Abyssinia. At Calcutta they were entertained by the Governor-General Marquis Wellesley the dedicatee and travelled to Benares Lucknow Ceylon and Madras. From Mangalore Salt explored the Red Sea. After returning to Bombay and Poona he travelled again to the Red Sea and made an extensive journey inland to the Abyssinian Highlands. Salt's original drawings remained in Valentia's possession and after Salt's death the plates too became his property. Like Fraser's Himala Salt's Twenty-Four Views was published in the same size and style as Daniell's Oriental Scenery and is seen very much as a continuation of that great work. The plates include fine views of Chowringhee; the fort of Jaunpur; 2 aquatints of Lucknow including the mosque in the Great Imambara; the great Temple at Tanjore; Poona; the Chaitya Cave; 2 aquatints of Cairo; Cape Town etc. The present example is the reissue by Thomas M'Lean printed on Whatman paper watermarked 1822 but otherwise printed from the same plates as the 1809 edition.

While in Abyssinia he made many observations on the geography the customs of the people and the flora and fauna. He brought back many specimens including a previously unknown dik-dik .
