Excerpt from Biblical Researches in Palestine, Mount Sinai and Arabia Petraea, 1841, Vol. 1: A Journal of Travels in the Year 1838 It was my original plan, to present to the public only the results of our researches in Palestine, with out any reference to personal incidents. But the advice of friends, whose judgment I could not but place above my own, was averse to such a course. I h ave therefore everywhere interwoven the personal narrative; and have endeavoured so to do it, as to exhibit the manner in which the Promised Land unfolded itself to our eyes, and the processes by which we were led to the conclusions and opinions advanced in this work. In all this there is at least one advantage for the public. As we venture to hope, that these volumes contain a considerable amount of new information upon the historical topog raphy of Palestine, this course will enable the reader better to judge of the opportunities for observation enjoyed by the travellers, as well as of the credibility of their testimony and the general accuracy of their conclusions. In all these particulars, we have no desire to shun the closest scrutiny. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
