A Victorian journalist went round the world and declined to be impressed by any of it. Lucy's first volume runs east from England through the Mediterranean, Egypt and India to the Far East, reporting the ports, the empire's officials and the sheer comic machinery of travelling in state, in the driest prose in Fleet Street.
