Quality paper, wide margins, beautiful text. All in very good to excellent condition The end of the first volume concludes with the following observation written about 1830: The condition of the Jews in Palestine is more insecure and exposed to insult and exaction than in Egypt and Syria, from the frequent lawless and oppressive conduct of the governors and the chiefs... In the city they appear fearful and humbled, for the contempt in which they are held by the Turks is excessive, and they often go poorly clad to citing suspicion. Yet it is an interesting sight to meet with a Jew wandering with his staff in his hand, and a venerable beard sweeping his bosom, in the rich and silent plain of Jericho, on the sides of his native mountains, or on the banks of the ancient river Kishon, where the arm of the mighty was withered in the battle of the Lord. Did a spark of the love of this country warm his heart, his feelings must be exquisite, but his spirit is suited to his condition
