Book Description
Blending accounts of customs and communities with over three hundred photographs, Bell leads readers from the Mosque of 'Umar to Kanawāt and the Dead Sea. Although often picturesque, the significant is never overshadowed by the spectacular, making this perceptive account of Syria as significant today as it was in 1907.
