He had invited the Mamelukes to eat salt with him, and he treacherously attacked and butchered them in the citadel of Cairo in cold blood. One alone escaped; he took a desperate leap over the battlements, his horse was killed on the spot, and he alone, of between 400 and 500, survived to tell the story of the massacre of his fellows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Inner Life of Syria, Palestine, and the Holy Land, 1875, Vol. 1 of 2: From My Private Journal Writing for my own sex, my greatest ambition was to have offered this first attempt to the noblest and most beloved of our sex, our Nation's Idol, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. I visited Vienna in May, 1873, partly - I may say chiefly - with the object of obtaining the desired permission, but Her Royal Highness was not there. At last a bright idea dawned upon me. I would embody my petition in a letter, and send it through the Embassy, and then - I was ashamed of pushing myself forward (a good old English feeling, I believe) - my petition and I disappeared together in the wild, struggling, unsympathizing crowd.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Syria, and the Syrians, Vol. 1: Or Turkey in the Dependencies IT is the custom now-a-days, to make an apology for intruding a new work on the public, especially when the subject thereof has been so often written upon. The history of Syria (including Palestine), has been the theme of many an author; and there is, perhaps, no country in the world upon which more books have been written. This is excusable: the subject is one of ever fresh import; the scenes where the Christian faith had its origin and completion ban never become dry to a Bible reader; the land which is replete with testimonies, in fulfilled prophecy, to the truthfulness of the word of God, as uttered by His prophets long ago, can never cease to be a subject of regard. To write on a land where Jesus trod, walked, and on whose waters He sailed - which was invested with undying interest by having witnessed His presence, and been hallowed by His prayers - where He went about doing good, and at last died for fallen man, is most natural, and one the most likely to be read by a Christian public.
