During his nine years sojourn begun 1672 and finished 1681, the author delved deep into a singularly wide and varied knowledge of the geography, history, archaeology, natural productions, languages, religions, superstitions, and customs of India and Persia to collect information and data which he incorporated into the three volumes of the book in a consistent manner. The books got further consistency with maps, figures and useful tables. The subjects of the books are very interesting and informative in containing observations made of the moral, natural and artificial estate of those countries. Further, it contains many adaptations or corruptions of words and phrases in various native languages, the origin and explanation of which is familiar to officers who have served in the East, but of which the European reader requires information. The author has preserved the figures from oblivion which he considers his duty in the interest of the discourse. So, the three volumes of the books are immensely beneficial for readers, analyst and researchers.

John Fryer was an English doctor and Fellow of the Royal Society, now best remembered for his descriptions of travel in Persia and East India. Fryer remained in the east for eight years, returning to England in August 1682, where he married and had at least one daughter, Anna Maria Sanderson. I Fryer's books provide contemporary accounts of Mughal India, southern India, and Persia, where he visited Isfahan and the southern parts of the country, with accurate observations in geology, meteorology, and natural history.
