Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jerusalem A young man was ploughing his field one summer morning. The sun was shining brightly, the grass was wet with dew, and the air was so fresh that words cannot describe it. The horses were frisky from the morning air, and pulled the plough as if it were a toy. It was quite a different pace from their usual one; the ploughman had almost to run to keep up with them. When the earth was turned by the plough, it lay a blackish brown, rich with moisture and fatness, and the plougher rejoiced at the prospect of soon being able to sow his rye. He thought to himself: How is it that sometimes I have so many misgivings, and think that life is so hard? Is anything needed but sunshine and fair weather to make me as happy as one of God's children in heaven P' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Voice of Jerusalem At the best it was not easy to work with the insistent dull booming of the guns from across the Channel, that unresting reminder Of civilisation in its agony Of dissolution; Of millions Of breaking hearts. The one compensation the war brought me I used to tell myself grimly was that it cut Off the bulk Of my callers from quartering themselves upon me for the night, for they were mainly aliens, friendly or neutral, and the coast was a prohibited area.

But outside in the enclosed court a similar crowd of ardent worshippers Of all races pressed round the movable altars, and prostrated themselves before the tabernacles made from palm-leaves. The officiating priests had to restrict the movements of their arms, and the thurifers, for lack of room, shook their censers up and down instead of swinging them, hundreds of eyes following the bluish fumes ecstatically as they ascended straight to the blue sky above.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

The Turks - as far as the original stock goes - are all of Turanian origin the Syrians are Semites, at least predominantly, with a mixture of Greek and other strains. As regards lan guage, the language of the Turks, though written in Arabic characters, is in every way distinct from Arabic. Few Syrians __outside Government circles in Palestine know Turkish, and. Their native language (arabic), of which they are justly proud, is banned by the Govern ment, who transact all their business - or did before the war - in Turkish or French. Students at the Syrian Protestant College at Beirut wishing to get their govern ment diplomas in medicine or, pharmacy, were not allowed to present themselves for examination in their own language but in Turkish or' French. All legal documents had to be drawn up in Turkish. The Syrian having legal business had to engage an interpreter just as if he were a foreigner. The Turk never indeed ceased to treat the Syrians as a vanquished people, and the land as a conquered one. The Governors sent from Constantinople were almost without exception Turks and knew Only Turkish or French, sometimes indeed only the former. Their period of appointment was precarious and always short. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
