Excerpt from The Land of Promise: Notes of a Spring-Journey From Beersheba to Sidon
I now finish the notes of my eastern 'journey. They are the same in kind as those of the former volume.
I have been short in describing well-known places, and longer in my notes of those not so often visited. Hence the sea-plain, from Sidon southward, has been brie¿y noticed while Beersheba, the Interior of the great Mosque at Jerusalem, the Quarries underneath the city, and the Mounds of ashes outside, have been taken up more at length. Some topographical discussions, which would have broken up the narrative, have been cast into an Appendix. The list of Books and the Index I meant to have made fuller, but have been staid by the unlooked-for growth and size of the volume.
