Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Levant Portion of the journey is described in a volume published last summer, entitled My Winter on the Nile, among Mummies and Moslems; the second in the following pages. The notes of the journey were taken and the books were written before there were any signs of the present oriental disturbances, and the observations made are therefore uncolored by any expectation of the existing state of affairs. Signs enough were visible of a transition period, ex traordinary, but hopeful with the existence of pova erry, oppression, superstition, and ignorance were mingling occidental and Christian influences, the faint beginnings of a revival of learning and the stronger pulsations of awakening commercial and industrial life. The best hope of this revival was then, as it is now, in peace and not in war. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Levant, Vol. 1 IN turning over the pages of In the Levant with a view to its revision for the present illustrated edition, I am reminded that it was written seven teen years ago. That is a considerable portion out of an individual life, and indeed in that of a West ern republic, but in the East it is scarcely the space between a sleeping and a waking. Since it was written, the russo-turkish war has been fought; philanthropy and fanaticism have again and again attempted to modernize, or to restore to the ancient ways, the hills and wildernesses of J udea; the English flag has been planted in Cyprus; English law, arms, and manners have encamped in Egypt; the Sultan has been mur dered, the Sultan has been deposed as imbecile, the Sultan still sits in his seraglio, lazily watching his iron-clads in the Golden Horn, in the midst of a civilization that has been steadily decaying for five hundred years, and in adding all the Occidental vices to the Oriental immoralities, and assuming.

Righter, Agent of the American Bible Society in the Levant Few words of preface are required for this unpretending volume. A man's life is not to be measured by the number of his years. It has been well said that some die old at thirty and others young at fourscore. The subject of this sketch was formed for high accomplishment, and to all human appearances was destined to do a great work in the service to which he was called. His early removal was a sad blow to the host of friends who were looking to his future with high hopes. But the thoughts of Infinite Wisdom are higher than ours. And while we bow with resignation to the will of Him who called our friend and brother so 'early to himself, we find a mournful satisfaction in preparing these memorials of one whose name and virtues will long be fragrant in the hearts of all who knew him.
