The sun brought all the sick people out of their berths this morning, and the indescribable moans and noises which had been issuing from behind the fine painted doors on each side of the cabin happily ceased. The night was so serenely pure, that you saw them in magnificent airy perspective; the blue sky around and over them, and other more distant orbs sparkling above, till they glittered away faintly into the immeasurable distance. The ship went rolling over a heavy, sweltering, calm sea. The breeze was a warm and soft one; quite different to the rigid air we had left behind us, two days since, off the Isle of Wight. The bell kept tolling its half-hours, and the mate explained the mystery of watch and dog-watch.

On the 20th of August, 1844, the writer of this little book went to dine at the-Club, quite unconscious of the wonderful events which Fate had in store for him. Mr. William was there, giving a farewell dinner to his friend Mr. James (now Sir James). These two asked Mr. Titmarsh to join company with them, and the conversation naturally fell upon the tour Mr. James was about to take. The Peninsular and Oriental Company had arranged an excursion in the Mediterranean, by which, in the space of a couple of months, as many men and cities were to be seen as Ulysses surveyed and noted in ten years. Malta, Athens, Smyrna, Constantinople, Jerusalem, Cairo were to be visited, and everybody was to be back in London by Lord Mayor's Day.

Thackeray (1811-63) was a British novelist and author best known for his satirical works, particularly Vanity Fair, a panoramic portrait of English society. After studying at Cambridge University, he travelled for some time in Europe and squandered much of the inheritance he came into aged 21. His marriage in 1836, followed by the birth of his three daughters, made it necessary for him to earn a living and he turned to journalism to support his young family. He wrote art criticism, book reviews and short fictional sketches, becoming a regular contributor to Punch, and eventually established his reputation with the publication of Vanity Fair in 1848. This account of a Mediterranean cruise undertaken in 1844 was published pseudonymously under the name of Mr M A Titmarsh in 1846.

A Journey from Cornhill to Grand Cairo is a delightful anti-travel book, describing a Mediterranean journey of the kind highly fashionable at the time but viewing the famous destinations with human disparagement rather than conventional adoration. The Irish Sketch Book is equally irreverent of contemporary literary fashion but more politically loaded due to its subject.
