A year later he was in Egypt, keeping a detailed diary of his voyage down the Nile, one of several which he planned, but failed, to publish. In 1867-8 he wintered in Cannes, wondering if France might be the best place to settle, and from there he visited Corsica, the subject of his last, and least commercially successful, travel book, Journal of a Landscape Painter in Corsica' (DNB).
