Travel Writings on Indochina

I've been collecting a collection of travel writings on Indochina at the fin de siècle:

Morice Docteur, 'Voyage en Cochinchine', Le Tour du monde, 30 (1875), 369-416. [Quoted in Mayer 1985]



Lemire, Charles, L'Indo-Chine. Cochinchine française, Royaume de Cambodge, Royaume d'Annam et Tonkin. Third edition (Paris: Challamel Aîné, [1877] 1884). 

 




Ferrière, Joseph, Georges Garros, Alfred Meynard and Alfred Raquez eds., L'Indo-Chine 1906 (n.p.: n.pub. 1906). [This one is published as a propaganda for the 1906 Exposition in Marseille] 



Massieu, Isabelle, Comment j'ai parcouru l'Indo-Chine: Birmanie, États Shans, Siam, Tonkin, Laos (Paris: Plon-Nourrit, 1901) [work by a female traveller. A study of Isabelle Massieu can be found in Valérie Boulain, Femmes en aventure (2012)] She has published earlier versions in La Revue des deux mondes in July and August 1890. I haven't compared the two versions yet [to be done]


Boissière, Jules, L'Indo-Chine avec les Français (Paris: Louis-Michaud, n.d.). [This is a posthumous edition by the Français d'Asie group with a preface by Jean Ajalbert, probably published during the 1910s along with the republication of Boissière's fictions as a effort of eulogising him]

Ajalbert, Jean, 'L'Indochine artistique et pittoresque', La Dépêche coloniale illustrée (1918), 52-4. [This is a special volume published by the Comité d'assistance aux travailleurs indochinois, a post-war effort]
