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._
