BARTLETT (W.H.).
Walks around the City and Environs of Jerusalem.
The scarce first edition.
“This little work is the result of a visit to Jerusalem in the summer of 1842. Before that period, the Author was quite unable to form any distinct idea of its appearance from then existing works; not so much from the absence of graphic descriptions, for such abound, as from the desultory style of the writers, and the absence of a connected plan, together with the want of correct and well-chosen Views.” (From the author’s preface).
