About this book

Henry Fielding's final book is titled "The Journal of a Voyage to Lisbon" (1707-1754). In 1754, Fielding set out for Lisbon with his second wife Mary Daniel, and a few others, all of whom were sick. His daily life during the journey is chronicled in the book, which blends political commentary, personal tales, and fortitude in the face of hardship. Fielding examines his decline and the depravity of English society with sarcasm and humor.
