Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from When I Was a Boy in Palestine
We have a great deal of interest in the personality behind each one of the "Children of Other Lands Books," but never more than in that of the stalwart young man who has placed in our hands this straightforward account of his boyhood in the Holy Land.
Mousa J. Kaleel was born at Ram Allah, ten miles from Jerusalem, a little more than twenty years ago. An older brother, Jacob, had received and much appreciated some instruction in an English school, and when Professor Elihu Grrant, now of Smith College, opened an American training school in his native village, Jacob interceded for his younger brothers until he secured admission for Mousa.
Professor Grant's experiences were extremely interesting.
