What it's about

Travels in India in the Seventeenth Century by Thomas Roe and John Fryer combines two key firsthand accounts of English diplomatic and medical journeys in India during the 1600s. Roe’s diplomatic mission to the Mughal court offers insights into politics, culture, and trade under Emperor Jahangir. Fryer’s detailed observations as a medical doctor document daily life, natural history, and geography across Mughal and southern India. Together, their narratives provide a rich, multifaceted portrait of 17th-century India from English perspectives.
