Westminster Gazette.—“To those who have been in Palestine Mr. Kelman’s book will recall much and suggest many new ideas. To those who have not, it will give, perhaps, a more accurate impression of the land and the people than any other work on Palestine.”
Daily Chronicle.—“Even people who care nothing for art are interested in faithful representations of the Holy Land as it is seen to-day. And here they have the whole country laid before them in scenes of extraordinary beauty—the mountains so full of history and poetic memories, the ancient river and the accursed sea, the holy city with her relics and her mosques, the brilliant Syrian crowds, and then the open country of ‘those holy fields over whose acres walked those blessed feet.’”

The Standard.—“There can be no two opinions about this book. It takes us, so to speak, to India without the trouble or expense involved in the journey.”
Notes and Queries.—“This eminent painter has caught—by methods which are partly his secret and partly his discovery—the means of reproducing Indian and Japanese scenes with a fidelity and beauty until recently unattainable.”
The Scotsman.—“The volume is an uncommonly desirable book. If the Horatian maxim be correct, it should carry every point, for it is as happy a mixture as could be made of the profitable and the sweet.”

Black and White.—“It is a charming volume, and contains some of the most delightful of Mr. Menpes’s Japanese studies. The reading matter, too, is very bright, and accords most agreeably with the delightful pages in which the artist holds unquestionable possession of the stage.”
The Times.—“Mr. Menpes’s pictures are here given in most perfect facsimile, and they form altogether a series of colour-impressions of Japan which may fairly be called unrivalled. Even without the narrative they would show that Mr. Menpes is an enthusiast for Japan, her art, and her people; and very few European artists have succeeded in giving such complete expression to an admiration in which all share.”
