This paper analyses Patrick Walker’s official report and John Caddy’s personal diary, written during the English expedition to Palenque in 1839-1840, with special emphasis on their description of the Guatemalan Petén, and of sparsely studied macro region. These two little-known documents, never translated into Spanish, provide a host of information about everyday life as experienced by its authors on their journey from Belize to Flores (Guatemala), and from there along the Usumacinta river to Laguna de Terminos. Each text in its own particular style and viewpoint, maps out the picture of a territory characterized by the exploitation of tropical woods, the abundance of natural resources, commercial and productive relationships with the colony of British Honduras, the exploitation of labour, foreign immigration and complex social ties in the midst of an enormous ethnic and cultural diversity, characteristic of this macro-region during the 19th century.
