In 1676, Jean-Baptiste Tavernier (1605-89), French merchant,
traveller and pioneer of trade with India, published an account of
his journey through India. This two-volume translation, published
in 1889 by Irish geologist Valentine Ball (1843-94), includes a
biographical sketch of the author, notes and appendices. Tavernier
begins his tale with the declaration that 'I came into this world
to travel.' As well as most of Europe, he visited large areas of
Turkey, Persia and India (where he acquired the great gem, now
known as the Hope Diamond, which he sold to Louis XIV), and sailed
to Java. In Volume 1, Tavernier sets out from Isfahan to Agra and
Delhi; he then supplies a historical and political description of
the empire of Shah Jahan and his successors. An appendix provides
details about the values of coins, weights and measures mentioned
by Tavernier in the original work.
