Excerpt from Letters on Egypt, Edom and the Holy LandI hope that those who do me the honour of perusing these Letters will not take them for more than they are worth, - a simple, and, I trust, faithful record of im pressions as they arose, and incidents as they occurred, such as I conceived would be read with interest at home. In preparing them for the press, I have divested them of much that could possess no general interest. If certain allusions to members of my family circle have been allowed to stand, it is only because they arose so naturally out of the circumstances that they serve to illustrate them, or that, in one or two instances, I could not find it in my heart to cut them out.I may be permitted to allude to the subject of many re¿ections in these volumes - the literal accomplish ment of prophecy, as displayed in the actual condition of Egypt, Edom, and Syria. Others have borne their testimony, it is but adding a stone to the cairn, yet I cannot, and ought not, to withhold mine.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
