About This Book

A cleric's travel narrative documenting a field tour across Palestine, combining on-site descriptions, maps, photographs, and drawings to relate physical geography to biblical accounts. Organized by district, it guides the reader through Jaffa and Judah, Bethlehem and the Dead Sea, Jericho and the Jordan, Jerusalem, Samaria, Galilee, and the Jordan's sources, detailing ruins, holy sites, topography, and archaeological features. The author emphasizes personal inspection while consulting earlier travellers and supplies plans and illustrations intended to clarify scriptural references and to demonstrate how landscape, ruins, and landmarks correspond with passages of Scripture.
