VISITS to the MONASTERIES of the LEVANT. By the Hon. ROBERT CURZON, Jun. With numerous Illustrations.
"This work is a most welcome addition to the stock of 'Travels in the East,' and chiefly because it differs essentially from any which have ever before fallen under our notice, whether the subject-matter or the mode of handling it be considered. It treats of thoroughly out-of-the-way and almost untrodden spots and scenes, and in detailing the adventures which befel him in his rambles in the East in quest of ancient manuscripts, the author has contrived to present to the reader some eight and twenty chapters of most agreeable writing, replete with information on most interesting points. The result is this delectable book, a bright and lively emanation from a happy and cheerful mind."—Times.
