Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Peasant Life in the Holy Land
To the new comer from the West, who obtains his first glimpse of Eastern life as he sets foot on the shores of Palestine, all he sees and hears comes with startling novelty. Every turn of the road or street, each group by the wayside, the long lines of camels winding down the valleys, the picturesque crowds of an Eastern market, the varied incidents of peasant life, all present brilliant pictures to eye and mind with a Vividness and freshness which are apt to be much dimmed by long residence among these scenes and intimate familiarity with them.
