By the wife of Sir Richard Fanshawe (1608-1666), Secretary of War to Prince Charles. After her husband's death, Anne wrote in 1676 a manuscript Memoirs (today held in the British Library) of him for private family circulation, which was not published until 1829. The book provides a colourful account of their extraordinary adventures, as well as giving carefully observed details of clothing and customs encountered in their travels.
