Excerpt from My Trip to the Orient
From early manhood I have had a consuming desire to visit classic and Bible lands, but never till in my seventy-fifth year did the opportunity offer itself, and from the beginning of my journey I have had in mind the relation of what I saw and heard for the benefit of my friends and the reading public. While in many instances I have used the guide-books that were available, I have not leant upon them, except where it was necessary to get facts and figures. I have tried to see, and to think, and to write for myself. With Bible in hand, I have accepted nothing, whatever tradition might say, if not substantiated by it. I do not claim infallibility for my book, but I have adhered strictly to facts, where it was possible to secure these facts. I have sought for information from the best sources at hand, and from notes taken on the ground I have written while matters were fresh in my mind.
