The correct option is D travelogue.
A travelogue is a detailed account of a traveler on historical facts in a personalised manner. A chronicle is an account of historical facts explaining the economic and social conditions of a place. Al-Beruni stayed in India for ten years and accompanied Mohammad Ghazni, thus describing the facts in a personal way. Hence, Mohammad Ghazni's expeditions will be called a travelogue.
