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 a cheerful
mind."--_Times._
