A Window Into Old Jerusalem: Observations about Jerusalem and the Holy Land 1820-1920 The accounts provided in this book come from various sources including visitors that passed through Jerusalem and its environs in a period when the Holy Land was transitioning from an old Turkish possession to administration under the British. It was during this period that travel to the Near East had become quite fashionable, as the “Orient” was almost always described as exotic, unusual and mysterious. A Window Into Old Jerusalem will provide the reader with a 'look’ back to see what life was like for those living in and around the city that sits at the center of the world.
