The account of the first voyage (1 June 1, 1675 – 16 November 1676) includes extended descriptions of the defences at Malta, of Cyprus, and of a trip he took on horseback from İskenderun (Skandaroon in the diary) to Aleppo. The topographical information in the diary is largely confirmed, for instance, by the more famous account of George Sandys.<7>
The diary passed after Teonge's death to a certain John Holyoake, probably the man of that name who was mayor of Warwick in 1699–1700 and whose uncle had property in Spernall. It was not published until 1825.<13> The manuscript then disappeared, which prompted allegations that it was a forgery, but it re-emerged at a Sotheby's auction in London in 1918. The 1927 scholarly edition edited by G. E. Manwaring under the eye of series editors Edward Denison Ross and Eileen Power has an informative introduction and notes. It was reprinted in 2005.<14>
