Publisher's Synopsis
""Dan to Beersheba: Work and Travel in Four Continents"" is a travel memoir written by Archibald R. Colquhoun. The book chronicles the author's adventures as he travels across four continents, namely Europe, Asia, Africa, and America. The title of the book is derived from a biblical expression that refers to the length of Israel, from the northernmost city of Dan to the southernmost city of Beersheba. The author's journey begins in Europe, where he travels through France, Italy, and Spain, before venturing into Asia, specifically India, Burma, and China. The book then takes the reader to Africa, where the author explores Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia, before concluding his journey in America, where he visits Mexico and the United States. Throughout the book, Colquhoun describes his experiences in each country, including his encounters with the people, their customs, and the places he visits. He also writes about his work as a journalist, which takes him to different parts of the world, and how he uses his travels to gain a better understanding of the world and its people. Overall, ""Dan to Beersheba: Work and Travel in Four Continents"" is a fascinating account of one man's journey across the world, filled with vivid descriptions and insightful observations about the places he visits and the people he meets.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
