Not illustrated. 1861 edition. Excerpt: ... syria past and present. Constantinople, September 26, 1860. When Greece was in her infancy, and long before Eome had ever been founded, the coast of Syria was covered with magnificent and wealthy cities.

Excerpt from The Massacres in Syria These precepts, thus inculcated during 1200 years, cannot be suddenly eradicated, nor can the conquering lords of so many centuries look calmly upon the slave of yesterday as the equal of to-day. In European Turkey, where the Christians outnumber the Mussulmans, this feel ing, it is true, is not so generally perceptible but in Syria, where the Moslem element prevails, it exists in full vigour, and the poorest and meanest Moslem hamal, or porter, considers himself alto gether a superior being to the best dressed and richest giaour whom he passes in the street; for has not Mohammed said, The Mussulmans alone are men.
