Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sacred Fountains: Or Observations Historical and Practical, on the Streams, Lakes and Fountains of the Holy Land
In the meantime, an American publisher announ ced a British work, of an almost synonymous title, written fifteen months after several of these articles were made public. An examination of the book has shown that they are not at all similar, and that the author has failed to do what I desired to accomplish. Without saying aught in disparagement of Mr. Grosse's volume, it will be proper to state that his work is much more on the order of a narrative, and contains sketches of but a few of these Pools and Fountains.
