Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hassan a Fellah; A Romance of Palestine It gladdened the heart to see so much perfection in a man. The almost uniform equality of the fine bronze of his skin told of his habitual disregard of dress. His head, for the time being without any other covering than its thickly-clustering raven-black hair, was bent slightly forward, the chin resting on his right hand. His dark hazel eyes looked out confidently from under the pair of strongly accentuated curves - narrow black dashes - that formed his brows, and which seemed like marks of attention inviting to the inspection of his beauty. The dress, doubtless, was similar to that worn by David as he kept the sheep of his father Jesse - a dress sanctioned by the usage of scores upon scores of generations of the men of the country. To-day the unbreeched peasant of Palestine, free of all constraint, immodestly innocent of all shame in his state of semi-nudity, goes his way in unconfined liberty of heart and limb, wearing the vesture that Abraham wore, and with the motion and action of a lord of creation. Habit and custom are everything; and no offence is taken where none is meant. No raiment, to be dress at all, could certainly be less conventional. But it had its advantages. It was suited to the climate and the people, and its very simplicity made it graceful, and permitted full and wholesome ventilation of all parts of the body. Its longest sweep reached little below the knee; and, as occasion required, it could be tucked up and rendered much shorter. If it had the stains of the outdoor life upon it, the odour of the pasture also clung about it; and, as old Isaac said, it had "the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed." For cold weather, and morning and evening wear, was the heavy brown and white striped abai, woven of camel's or goat's hair. This was waterproof, and a perfect protection from the storm; and, wrapped in it, a man could sleep comfortably out-of-doors all night. And peasants, and especially shepherds, as the season demanded, also often might be seen in a short coat or jacket formed of sheepskin, the woolly side turned in or next the body.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides new insights into the role of U.S. consuls in the Ottoman Middle East in the special context of the Holy Land. The motivations and functioning of the American consuls in Jerusalem, and of the consular agents in Jaffa and Haifa, are analyzed as part of the US diplomatic and consular activity throughout the world, and of Western involvement in the Ottoman Empire and in Palestine during the century preceding World War I. The processes of cultural, demographic, economic, environmental, and settlement change and the contribution of the US consuls and American settlers to development of and modernization of Palestine are discussed. Based on primary archival sources such facets as the role of consuls regarding the use of extraterritorial privileges, Western religious and cultural penetration, control of land and land purchase, non-Muslim settlement, judicial systems, and technological innovations are considered from American, Ottoman, and local viewpoints.
