Serao, Mathilde. In the country of Jesus; tr. from the Italian by Richard Davey. **$2. Dutton.
“As the translator says in his brief note, Signora Serao writes from the point of view of a very orthodox and fervent Catholic, who unhesitatingly accepts not only the Gospels, but also the ancient traditions of her church. She sails along the Nile, goes through Cairo, sees the Pyramids, and goes on to Syria. She then takes in Jerusalem, visiting all the places of interest, Galilee, and other places visited by Christ or connected with his life and works.”—N. Y. Times.
