See Bodleian Abinger c7 f95 and c7 f101, letters from Thomas Holcroft in Europe to Godwin. Holcroft sent Voyage dans le Crimee to give Marshall a book worth translating, it had already been translated from Russian to German to French, and was published by Robinson in 1802 as Travels in the Crimea, by a secretary to the Russian embassy. It had to compete with two other travel books on the Crimea issued in England in 1802
