Product Description
Eastern Sketches: Notes of Scenery, Schools, and Tent Life in Syria and Palestine (1871) is a travelogue written by Ellen Clare Miller, an American woman who traveled to the Middle East in the late 19th century. The book provides a vivid and detailed account of Miller's experiences and observations as she journeyed through the region, visiting cities, villages, and nomadic encampments. Miller's descriptions of the landscapes, people, and customs of the Middle East are richly detailed and provide a unique glimpse into a world that was largely unknown to Western readers at the time. In addition to her observations of daily life, Miller also writes about her encounters with various religious and ethnic groups, including Jews, Muslims, and Christians. The book is a fascinating and valuable historical document that offers insight into the social, cultural, and political realities of the Middle East in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
