‎Le recueil de cette fameuse ambassade a été préparé sur ordre du gouvernement britannique. Outre limportance historique de louvrage, ce recueil est particulièrement intéressant pour les descriptions géographiques des lieux visités: Madère, Ténériffe, Rio de Janeiro, St. Hélène, Tristan da Cunha, lîle Amsterdam, Java, Sumatra, la Cochinchine [Vietnam], etc La Grande Bretagne souhaitait établir des relations diplomatiques officielles avec la Chine, notamment pour les rapports commerciaux. Mais lautosuffisance économique de la Chine, qui depuis des siècles navait admis de présence étrangère, rendit lambassade le Lord Macartney peu fructueuse. Plus quune réussite politique, cette ambassade fut loccasion de cet admirable recueil qui livre un témoignage unique sur la Chine du XVIIIe siècle.
