Book Description
Excerpt from The War in Syria, Vol. 1 of 2 In giving an account of the War in Syria, I have endeavoured to state the facts as they occurred, of most of which I was an eyewitness. The Levant Papers have furnished me with much useful information, and I have endeavoured to make no statements that cannot be borne out either by them or by documents in my own possession. In writing a work of this kind I have been obliged to publish letters and extracts of letters from these Papers, in order to save the reader the trouble of examining them, and, indeed, it is not in the power of the public to get hold of Parliamentary Papers without a serious expense; this I trust will be a sufficient excuse for the numerous documents that I have thought it necessary to give.

Book Description
Excerpt from In Syria, Vol. 1 of 2 There are other aspects which no reader will fail to note, and which give a lively interest to the contents of the volume. His chronicles of persecution, spoliation, civil war, and massacre, which have so often marked the religious and political turmoils of the Asiatic Levant, his flashlights upon the confused religious entanglements of the Nearer Orient, his descriptive glimpses Of the natural features and the physical phenomena, as well as the flora and fauna, of lands famous in literature and history, his references to men and women prominent in the tragic drama of civil and religious strife, as, for example, his story of Abd cl Kadir, are illustrative of the variety which marks the subject matter.

Excerpt from Syria, and the Syrians, Vol. 1: Or Turkey in the Dependencies IT is the custom now-a-days, to make an apology for intruding a new work on the public, especially when the subject thereof has been so often written upon. The history of Syria (including Palestine), has been the theme of many an author; and there is, perhaps, no country in the world upon which more books have been written.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1842 edition. Excerpt: ... 248 the author sent to alexandria. chapter xix. The Author sent to Alexandria--Defences of the Town--Lord Palmerston's Instructions to Lord Ponsonhy--Lord Ponsonby's dislike to Mehemet Ali--The Author's Correspondence with Boghos Bey--Interview with the Pacha--His Arsenal--Further Correspondence--Signature of the Convention. The Admiral having thought it necessary to increase the squadron off Alexandria to six sail of the line, I sailed on the 15th November to take the command; the object was to make a powerful demonstration before Alexandria under my pennant, as the Admiral wrote to me. The rest of the squadron, as I have before stated, were to be withdrawn, with the exception of the Benbow. Ibrahim at this time had collected a very strong force at Zachle and Malaka, and I thought it very probable, unless he had decided to abandon Syria altogether, that he would take advantage of the absence of the squadron, and march a strong force on Beyrout. Had he attempted such an enterprise he must have succeeded; Sidon would then have fallen, and probably Acre, for the explosion had blown a great part of the land-face down, and the temporary reparations could not have resisted a powerful force. 250 Lord Palmerston's Instructions On the 21st of November I arrived off Alexandria, where I found the Rodney, Revenge, Ganges, Vanguard, and Cambridge, of the line; Carysfort, and Medea, steamer. The latter a few days before had been nearly blown up by the bursting of a shell. Before communicating with the squadron, I ran in and reconnoitred the defences: the sea-face appeared covered with guns, but, with the exception of the Pharo Castle, I saw nothing that could resist a strong naval force; but still any attack without troops would lead to no result, ..

Book Description
Excerpt from The Inner Life of Syria, Palestine, and the Holy Land, 1875, Vol. 1 of 2: From My Private Journal Writing for my own sex, my greatest ambition was to have offered this first attempt to the noblest and most beloved of our sex, our Nation's Idol, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales. I visited Vienna in May, 1873, partly - I may say chiefly - with the object of obtaining the desired permission, but Her Royal Highness was not there. At last a bright idea dawned upon me. I would embody my petition in a letter, and send it through the Embassy, and then - I was ashamed of pushing myself forward (a good old English feeling, I believe) - my petition and I disappeared together in the wild, struggling, unsympathizing crowd.
